    Ha - I had a feeling someone would pull out a claim Robin Hood was real! :D

    Whatever factual basis exists in Robin Hood = El Grande Mooto Pointo. If there ever was a real RH, he's turned into fiction now - there's so little documentation there that everything's just myth and lore...

    IMO, ethnicity is only important in a role if ethnicity is important in a role.

    There's nothing about Bond or Superman that make them inherently white. They could be any race - they don't need to be white.

    Did all you guys freak out when they announced a black version of "Wizard of Oz"? Doesn't get much whiter than a Kansas farmgirl! :laugh:

    Henry Cavill looks the part...so yes, he'd be a good choice.

    Helen is just too old...but she was sure hot when she was young and probably could have pulled it off.

    A lot of silly posts. Bond producers will want a committed actor non contractual to any other company Marvel for example.

    Remember when Daniel Craig was mooted to play James Bond, howls of dismay. Debut film was royale kick-ass, sadly it was downhill racer after that.

    What would folks say if Leonardo DiCaprio or Ryan Reynolds played "SHAFT"?

    I'll say again, what if Ryan Reynolds played Shaft?

    Blade was great with Wesley Snipes, cool character. Wouldn't want Jackie Chan playing him( no cool factor ).

    Whitewashing in films has been going on for decades. There is a laundry list of white actors playing minority characters. Johnny Depp as Tonto, Scarlett Johannson as Motoko Kusanagi to name just a couple of recent examples. There are a multitude of examples. The list of white actors playing non-white characters goes on and on and on.

    Cary Fukunaga is to direct Bond 25.
    Who? ( that's right )
    Best thing in his resume. 16 episodes of True Detective.

    Bond producers went with the el cheapo route. And it could have been Danny Boyle.

    Bond 25, released February 2020.
