really confused about Rooney Mara being casted as tiger lily for the new Peter Pan movie???????????
Never forget that a Native woman tried to audition and was turned away.
UM EXCUSE ME?????
But she’s a-? I don’t-??? I DON’T GET IT WHY IS SHE WHITE THERE IS SERIOUSLY NO REASON AND WHAT’S WITH HER DRESS????
WHAT THE HEK IS GOING ON HERE??????
I’m guessing that they wanted to avoid a controversial or racially insensitive portrayal of Tiger Lily, as some see the Disney film doing. Of course, in doing so they’ve made a controversial and racially erasing casting choice that is likely to backfire.
Bear in mind, ‘Pan’ is a Warner Bros. film and Disney isn’t touching this one, just pointing it out because everything is Disney to someone.
