AVATAR CASTING STILL FAILS
Feb. 7th, 2009 02:08 amDev Patel as ZUKO???
I mean just because he's Asian...doesn't mean he fits the Asians I think people see Zuko's culture portrayed----which is more Chinese than anything. And Indian and Chinese...not the same culture. T_T Plus the paleness of Zuko is different from Patel. And I'm sure its not that hard to find a Chinese actor.... lots of potential actors are out there if given the opportunity rather than just picking a Asian star who became successful with his film.
What the hell is up with these ignorant cast directors... let alone let white kids portrayed as Asian influenced characters in an Asian influenced world.
aang_aint_white: has a bunch of info to protest against these terrible casting calls.
Avatar live action is still full of fails and they even haven't started productions...
