In a recent interview with Screen Anarchy to promote the next season of his own series, the actor weighed in on the Iron Fist controversy. “I think that’s people going a little too precocious on that because originally the character was written white – it wasn’t like it was a whitewashing thing,” Wu said. “It’s not like you are talking about a ‘Ghost in the Shell issue,’ right? And I still don’t actually buy the ‘Ghost in the Shell’ whitewashing issue either, and I certainly don’t buy into the cultural appropriation bullshit because that’s saying that ‘only Asians are allowed to do martial arts’ then that means only black people can play basketball and rap? That means Jeremy Lin shouldn’t be playing basketball? And Eminem shouldn’t be rapping? That’s bullshit, you know."
