personally i like Gal and i think she is not the worst choice for the part.

i am stoked for WW 1984 tbh

 

i really dont care who is cast in whatever as long as i think they have the ability to do the role and film justice. Charlize Theron comes to mind. she can do just about anything.

This is dumb, as you all know. Cleopatra was pretty certainly Macedonian-Greek with a smidge of Persian. The support for her having any Egyptian or African blood is generally rejected. More dumb stuff

seems to me we are rushing head long back to segregation and the doctrine of separate but equal    Maybe one day it will be more important the talent of the actress than the color of her ski

Oh yes, he is great in that! My appreciation for Steve Buscemi didn't disappoint in this either, and he plays well against Simon Beale's scheming.

Did you know there is a Chinese actor that is an Obama impersonator? Think he got popular some years ago and wanted to make it big.. in China at least.

 

Fred Armisen routinely impersonated Obama. Don't think many complained (there were some) but there were plenty of perfectly fine African American actors that could do the job.

I did not know about the Chinese Actor, wonder if he realised what a big no no this was?

 

Sort of reminds me of Prince Phillip and his Chinese comments.

 

Pretty sure Obama is half African American so hardly appropritae.

Charlize Theron would have been a great Cleopatra. Maybe a bit old but she would have slayed.

 

In her day maybe, but now? She is 45.

Well, maybe not by that much now that I Googled. She was 39 when she died, and Theron is in amazing shape. I change my mind, she could 100% do this.

Well I know she has a lot of battle injuries, was she the one who said she could not get a BF.
