Well, since the beginning it was only men in the lead roles, had the power and influence. Now it's shifting towards women alittle. The majority are still men. It's just all the publicity today that makes it seem like it's only women now.

I don't care if the actors or their characters are straight, gay, lesbian, trans. If the show/movie is good, I'll watch it. Same thing with music. I know a lot of guys that say they hate Queen (one of the greatest rock bands ever) because Freddy Mercury is/was gay. I don't judge artistic material based on the artist's personal life. What people do in their personal life is their own business, as long as they are not hurting anyone.

I don't believe that casting should hinge on someone having an agenda. It's as simple as that.

Speaking of which... I watched Jumanji Black Panther a while back. Was rather amused that the most advanced and richest civilization on earth would resort to spear chucking and battle rhinos. You'd at least expect 40" adamantium rims, super gats, and adamantium teefs...

The best part of Black Panther was when the hippo ate Jack Black. If on the other hand the Jonas brother had died that would have been the best part.

Just read they're rebooting Buffy the Vampire Slayer with a black lead. Not because they auditioned loads of people and this one talented black actress stood out. Instead they're going to the black actress shop in search of their darkest, hardest worker. They've also said its going to tackle more modern issues so that would be vaping, anything that has a penis that shouldn't and school shootings.

The vampires in this reboot better be played by actual vampires or I for one will be morally outraged.

Hollywood has run out of original ideas. That's why all of these reboots and remakes are going on. If they can't get the original cast, they get actors that are the opposite of the originals. Female replace male lead. Black replace white. Rich to poor, poor to rich. They will all still be terrible, but a young audience that never saw the originals won't know any better.

Isn't that how casting has always been done? They like to think it's not that way, that they hire the best person for the job, but someone always has an agenda. Now that people can speak out, it gets more attention and people feel the need to look impartial. Affirmative action for Hollywood.

A black girl named Buffy. The show already lacks credibility. Pretty sure a Google search will return 0 results and ask "Did you mean a *white* girl named Buffy?"

I was the right age to watch Buffy, it was basically porn for me. One of them was absolute filth, Giles I think she was called...
