Hollywood producer Gavin Polone calling Anti White washing is double-edged sword .

He said

  • whitewashing label is misapplied is when a character is changed from an ethnicity in the source material to another to accommodate a specific actor.   This is not the same as casting someone of one race to play a character of another.



  • Scarlett Johansson's starring role in Ghost in the Shell, Tilda Swinton being cast in Doctor Strange, Neither of these examples was evidence of the distasteful racism of white actors playing a race other than their own, but rather thecommon business choice of adapting a property for a wider audience. what she did have to be was a big star capable of justifying a huge budget.

  • China is the second largest film market in the world, There is no reason to believe that this was anything other than a one-time instance of"greenwashing," rather than "whitewashing,"  (green ?)

  • It is unfortunate, actor Ed Skrein felt he had to drop out of the new Hellboy movie because some disagreed with him being cast .The filmmakers were making a creative choice in going with Skrein, the outside pressure to change creative decisions because a fictional character was one race or another is a double-edged sword. After all, a similar creative decision led Marvel to change Nick Fury, who is white in theAvengers comic, and cast Samuel L. Jackson,which was an inspired move and led to greater diversity in the franchise.And if those who protested Skrein wanted true ethnic alignment with the comics, they should still be upset that a Japanese-American wasn't cast.

  • cast the best actor available who is of the same ethnicity as the character; or cast Lou Diamond Phillips. Phillips can do this because he was born in the Philippines to a Filipina mother of Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiian and Spanish heritage and to an American father who was one-quarter Cherokee. So, when in doubt, LDP's got you covered.

Skeet Ulrich and Kale Sprouts seem to be busy on the set as they film the penultimate episodes of the first half of the season. Skeet's character ended the first season behind bars so some of these pictures hint at where we'll see him over the course of the season as he presumably goes through a trial for hiding and discarding a dead body as well as drug running.

Using her comedy skills from Vegas Vacation, Marisol Nichols was on Whose Line is it Anyway a few nights ago. The account for the show even used the corny pun of "a RIVER of comedy" to promote it


marisolnichols: Improv is one of my favorite creative outlets. No lines, no scripts, just pure imagination. I don't get a lot of opportunities to stretch my comedic side, so thank you Whose Line Is It Anyway. Tune in tonight @thecw 9/8c to see me exercising my sillier side. Everybody needs a good laugh. 😜

Dan Simmons''Summer of Night' getting feature film treatment

Sony has picked up the rights for Dan Simmons' 1991 novel 'Summer of Night'. Mexican filmmaker Isaac Ezban is set to direct a script by Ben Poole.

The book's summary:

It's the summer of 1960 in Elm Haven, Illinois, and five 12-year old boys are forming the bonds that a lifetime of changes will never erase. But then a dark cloud threatens the bright promise of summer vacation: on the last day of school, their classmate Tubby Cooke vanishes. Soon, the group discovers stories of other children who once disappeared from Elm Haven. And there are other strange things happening in town: unexplained holes in the ground, a stranger dressed as a World War I soldier, and a rendering-plant truck that seems to be following the five boys. The friends realize that there is a terrible evil lurking in Elm Haven...and they must be the ones to stop it.

Obviously Sony is doing this because they're hoping to ride the 'It'/'Stranger Things' gravy train but the book itself is pretty good and the similarities to King's novel are fairly surface-level.
