[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 154002, member: 68"] Is it not insulting to Smith to somehow imply he is not right for the role as he is not "black" enough? I mean, he's clearly a black man and lived his whole life as that. He's an actor not a magician. The world is a rainbow of colour, we are all different. I would understand if they had cast a white guy or an Asian actor. They have cast an African American actor. In every race there are varying skin tones and complexions. An actors job is to be convincing in a part using their talents. [/QUOTE]
