If I saw a visual depiction of the Humpty Dumpty rhyme and an egg had not been cast in the part of Humpty Dumpty, I might be surprised initially, but in no way would it alter my understanding of the story being told. There are a whole array of breakable objects which could play the part of Humpty Dumpty without altering the narrative.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Is the same not true for a black actor playing Bond? If it wouldn't alter the narrative or affect the viewer's understanding of the story being told, why does it matter that we're used to seeing him as white?
I do understand it can be jarring when a different actor plays a familiar character, but that's been going on with Bond for decades. If actors of different heights, weights, face shapes, hairstyles, hair colours etc. can play Bond, why can't an actor of different skin colour?
