Star Wars!

THR reports J.J. Abrams and the “Star Wars” producing team have set about fulfilling their promise of fresh faces in the new franchise entry, as Oxford-educated newcomer Maisie Richardson-Sellers is rumored for an undisclosed supporting role. Caution is of course required—the outlet claims talk denying Sellers’ involvement is just as prevalent so far. If true though, the stage actress (“For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide”, “Mephisto”) could be playing a “young black or mixed-race woman who may be a descendent of Jedi Knight Ben Kenobi”.

Congratulations on the big gig!

Yep...
PC Hollywood that wants to brainwash us. (Well JJ is from the chosen people)

So they need to cast every stereotype. A "african American" (or African Swede, African Spaniard, Afrikan UK), a latino, an asian and a caucasian (that usually are portraid by the funny nose people)

JJ hates us non-chosen and it is proven by all his films and every single Lens flair he punish us with.

JJ hates us non-chosen

I don't get it. He hates non-jews because he casts people of all ethnicities for a movie?

And what do you mean by "brainwash"? What kind of ideia do you think they want to shove down yout throat? Respect for other ethnicities? Why is this a bad ideia in your opinion? Your comment sounds slightly racist.

Read chimpout forums much? Somehow I always thought of the SW universe to have all sorts of races, alien types and colors. A universe without all the skin color fixation nonsense the small minded here on Earth have. But hey, time to put that tin hat back on and spew some more hate on chimpout OP.

So a Galaxy with millions of species but the humans all have to be generic white or look like Billy Dee!!!

Can't wait to see all the doors Star Wars will open with their diverse female and minority casting choices over the next few decades.
