She drew the ire of overly obsessed parasocial stan twitter (much like what has recently happened with Inde) and so they’ve been able to successfully create and push narratives about her.

There's also more than a sprinkle of antisemitism involved lowkey

Watched the first 3 X Men movies for the first time recently. Just finished last stand ln.

Praying to god Rogues adaptation in this doesn’t mirror Anna Paquins at all. That was an utterly miserable character

There is nothing identifiable about Rogue’s appearance besides the white streak in her hair. Give any white-passing actress a wig and they look like Rogue.

If you’re gonna say that Inde doesn’t resemble Rogue in any way, then the same applies to Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg

Niggas just wanted to see a tall, thick white woman on screen and are tryna find every way around just saying that

Hugh Jackman famously does not physically resemble Wolverine

Doctor Strange, Batman, and Spider-Man don’t really have any outwardly unique aspects about their physical appearances other than the fact that they’re white guys

Neither does Iron Man, but I’ll give you that RDJ uncannily resembles what Tony Stark looks like in the comics

Are you niggas living in a different reality

Unless your standard for looking like a character is as basic as “white Jewish man with curly hair”, then literally nobody watched The Social Network back in 2010 and thought “wow Eisenberg looks just like Zuckerberg”

This is referring to?

somehow the discourse gets more n more reductive every time u step in here

See this is an actor who actually RESEMBLES Zuckerberg outside of just being a white man with a similar hairstyle

Quinn and Zuckerberg have similar facial features

Who is playing storm? Like is this movie set during their teen years or something?

I meed storm to give auntie vibes

People complaining that Inde Navarrette doesn’t resemble Rogue in any way

I’m saying that 1) an actor does not have to look like a character to play a character, and 2) there is nothing unique about Rogue’s physical appearance outside of the white streak in her hair, so any white woman with a wig could play the part.

The niggas complaining just wanted to see a tall, thick white woman that resembles some comic iterations of the character, even though there have been numerous versions of the character that look nothing like that

They reaching for any & everything & its not sticking

It's 18 year old Gen Z prudes who are a little too oversensitive making these lmao

Like a WHOLE Google Doc complaining about the tiniest things based off IG stories???

Wait, THAT'S the discourse?

We ❤️ Inde !

Give Spaeny any number of the other mutants yet to be cast

Sad!

Its both, especially for comic books since you're adapting from a medium that is known for visuals. It differs from like adapting harry potter or dune

Ofc there's liberties that can be taken tho

Her being on the taller side is apart of her image too because she’s a brawler type and again she doesn’t resemble the character. The same way Pedro Pascal doesn’t resemble Reed Richards at all. What u don’t understand

I’m not saying they purposefully go looking for actors who don’t resemble the characters at all. What I’m saying is that casting searches are about which actor would be the best at playing the part, NOT about which actor looks the most like the character they’re playing

Wolverine is classically short and stocky

Hugh Jackman is 6’3”

It literally does not matter

Pedro Pascal doesn’t resemble Reed Richards at all, and it does not matter

“It doesn’t matter” when that is literally the biggest critic with Hugh’s Wolverine and everyone wants a short guy to play the next Wolverine

Stop with this bro. She was cast literally last minute before D23 and got the part mainly because of her current popularity
