https://deadline.com/2017/08/titans-anna-diop-cast-starfire-live-action-series-dc-digital-service-1202155063/
>24: Legacy alumna Anna Diop has landed one of the leads, the series-regular role of Starfire, in the new live-action series Titans, from Greg Berlanti, Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, Sarah Schechter and Warner Bros TV. She joins Australian newcomer Teagan Croft, who was cast as another lead, Raven, in the series that’s slated to premiere in 2018 as part of the inaugural slate of a new DC-branded direct-to-consumer digital service.

I know we just had a thread about this that went to shit, but I wanted to post a shoop of Diop that I just finished because Why not.

Good shop, anon. I don't really care about the black thing but I'm worried will get a gimped Starfire in the vein of Domino. She would've been fine as long as she was painted properly

I don't get the issue with her being black, she has overly curly hair, big lips and big eyes as well as a black woman's body proportions. I always assumed she was black-ish.

So this is why Starfire has been looking rather rihanna esq when done by certain artists of late.

Look the important thing is, if she talks like the cartoon version of Starfire, it'll be really really racist, and we'll all have a good laugh.

Because black people are the only minority that the american corps seem to care about.

She's 13.
For reference, Anna Diop is 29.

I'm pretty sure they didn't tell the artists to start blacking her up so they could cast a black actress later on. For one thing the trades would have given it away with the casting call.

It never ceases to amaze me how the community on this site can be so bookish yet so near-sighted.

>why not X why do blacks always get Y

If you want something, you ask for it. Why is it black people's fault that they're vocal? In the 1960's you all would have been saying "Why is it always blacks who want Civil Rights? What about Asian rights?" When the truth of the matter is you never cared about the issue in the first place and your argument is only to serve the desire for things to remain status quo.

Also, it shouldn't surprise you that the lines between morality and profit gain are blurred in media. You think movie and video game creators actually care about these issues? Of course not. Aligning with the social climate in most cases protects your brand. It seems to me that you all think that blacks come to a consensus every month to delegate which superhero becomes black.

As far as Starfire is concerned, the actress is attractive and can act--I'm ok with this.
>>
Reminder that Anna Diop is Senegalese not "African-American".

(not that that makes the casting any better)

I was just reading this thread but had to jump in cause your post made me laugh so hard.

It's obvious you're either a woman or minority, maybe both, because you all do the same shit when presented with the truth. Your brains shut down and instead of coming up with rebuttal you either go 'fuck off', 't-virgin' or some other similar low effort insult.

I bet you won't even read this spoiler and reply with something like "Fuck off faggot"

As long as affirmative action or other involuntary means for people/government to directly affect demographics exists its perfectly fair to assume every Black is an affirmative action hire unless stated otherwise, or in places not even affirmative action can reach.

Like how it's perfectly acceptable to think a bosses son was hired solely due to nepotism unless proven otherwise.

What's more low effort than the copypasta of affirmative action and talent and effort? I don't believe for a second you even typed that up fresh for this thread; you probably just loaded up your standard "niggers are getting uppity" text file and picked a paragraph or two at random.
(And the talk of talent is always kind of funny because what talent and effort? Hollywood is all about the casting couch anyway.)

By that logic there is no merit, or talent, or ability. You can always make excuse, be it nepotism, or affirmative action, or because the person in question sucks a mean dick or greased the right palm. There is no end to the excuses and there's no reason to believe even the proof otherwise.

Friendly reminder that affirmative action only applies to governmental organisations and is also illegal in California, where Hollywood is located.

So let's make sure I have this straight.
When I succeed = Talent

>>94866599
So quick to complain about affirmative action, yet it's been proven numerous times that white women benefit the most from it, and also that part where white people can go to certain prestigious universities sometimes even for free, cause their great great grandfather went there.
>>
>>94865993
They won't. They'll literally rewrite her as coming from a planet of strong, independent black women who don't need no man and have superpowers.

This. I thought a Latina actress would've been the most likely for Starfire. She always sort of had that look to me.

>or indian
Asians getting roles is pretty unlikely. I can only name like three Indian actresses that've been featured in Hollywood: Aishwarya Rai, Freida Pinto and Priyanka Chopra.

It'll be even worse if she meets Alfred.

Yeah, no, they're going to give her a "device" that lets her appear "human" so they don't have to have her sit in the chair or use CGI. Just like the actor on Supergirl is always human and no Manhunter.

Problem isn't getting shows to blacklist blacks. They do that by themselves. It is getting anti-white producers to stop pushing diversity as a positive despite the negative impact on the film. Without the RACIIIIIIST angle people do not like blacks in films besides the random character that is ultra buff or funny or dies. People can tolerate a few blacks but do not enjoy their focus.

So no one ITT falls into "having no issue with diversity as long as it isn't completely shoehorned pandering" territory? Let's be honest, while the industry is becoming more inclusive, we're not gonna see many minority creators able to get work to the forefront any time soon, so until then this is kind of all they have in terms of representation. Maybe in about 50 years when we start seeing more black, Asian, Latin, gay, women etc. creators able to make their own successful characters then we can put a complete end to raceswitching.

I'll fall in to that category when it's not always "Just cast a black person," and they start doing the same thing with asians, latinos, and even whites.

It's always white to black. NEVER the reverse. NEVER White to Latino. NEVER White to Asian. NEVER Latino to Asian, etc.

Never said it was. I would cast someone from the Mediterranean or a Latin actress to portray Starfire. You could also use their natural bronze skin tone as a "depowered" version of the character; so when she goes full "powered up mode", she has the orange tint.

That's just the /co/ related stuff. Not even bothering with every time it happens to something form /a/, or stuff based on a real story like what happened with Argo, or with books like what happened with the Hunger Games or Harry Potter.

But of course, those were all the best actors for the jobs, and in that last case it's not like waterbenders are even real so why can't they be white?

I wasn't talking about Katniss.
But since you mentioned her, she was said to be olive skinned; so that's at the very least Mediterranean or something. Of course she was also supposed to be scrawny and half starved but JLaw can't lay off the french fries so whatever I guess.

It's apparently hypocritical to only care about your own race being changed to something else. But it's only hypocritical if white people do it, because coloured people need representation or they'll all throw themselves from buildings

Supposed to be Asian.
And the only thing I'm trying to "prove" is that it's a two way street. Plenty of black and asian and latino characters get changed to being white. And it's exactly the same with the defense as well, "oh well maybe it was the best performance!". The only real difference is that when it's white to anything else we get additional crying about muh affirmative action.

Who the fuck even cares.
>>94867968
First four movies Lavender Brown was a black actress. The second she's actually got lines and starts dating Ron they recast her as a white actress. And Rowling was on set for those first four so it's not like she didn't have ample opportunity to change things before then.

You guys are fucking delusional if you think they're going to change her skin color. They'll change her eyes but she's gonna stay black and you'll be really lucky if she gets her hair color.

For one, they don't want to be accused of 'erasing her blackness', and secondly they want to flaunt their diversity. Which is why everyone heard about Starfire's actress and no one heard about Raven's actress.
