America is a great country


But why have completely unknown foreign actors portray Americans ?
From Ohio even. It’s shot in Austria , with Astrian actors pretending to be American with iffy accents. Even Russel , who grew up in a foreign land, London I think , can’t when get the accent right. Why not just cast Jewish actors ? Shoot it here and make it believable. 2/10

Yes, the US is amazing. We have kept the world free for centuries much tanks to Joe Biden. Anyway this was shot in Australia. Its very cheap there. A poor and underdeveloped country but they speak English. A shooting budget will get you a long way. $1 will last for days.

Austria would be waaaay too expensive for any filming.

One reason might be to sell tickets in the countries those actors hail from. We already know Americans are going to buy tickets, they watch all kinds of BS movies and TV shows. Americans will watch anything, and even claim it is the greatest show that ever existed - unless it is all a troll and bot driven lie and most Americans are working just to survive to the next paycheck while the media portrays a fake America?
