Kumail Nanjiani: "People don’t want to cast nonwhite people as bad guys.”

“I think that Hollywood now — even though they’re trying to be more diverse — is still weird,” the actor told Esquire UK. The article notes Nanjiani believes that the problem is “good intentions can sometimes lead to misguided solutions: If the bad guy is a brown guy, what message is that sending?”

“And that’s just as limiting as anything else,” Nanjiani said. “I want to play more bad guys.” He pointed to actor Sebastian Stan, who plays Marvel superhero the Winter Solider as well as a cannibal in the 2022 movie Fresh. “He does these big Marvel movies, and then he’ll play a psychopath,” he says. “I was told that’s going to be hard because people don’t want to cast nonwhite people as bad guys.”

Well, well, well.

Hollywood is so goddamn retarded these days... the idea that its inappropriate or wrong in any way to cast non-whites as the antagonist in a film is hilariously stupid (and racist).

Would training day be better with a white guy in Denzels role? Would Demolition man be better if a white guy replaced Wesley Snipes? Would the Rocky movies be better without Carl Weathers? Would Kill Bill 1 be better if the primary antagonist was not an Asian woman? What about Star Wars, is it racist for an antagonist (probably the greatest villain in all of film history) to have a black mans voice?

literally you in the "are men better leaders than women" thread:

"not every single man is a better leader than every single woman"

"Hollywood doesnt cast nonwhite guys as bad guys anymore"

You: "look at this one example though!!"

He has that radar that goes off whenever someone points out Liberal bias and Wokeness and then he runs to the rescue.

They dont necessarily contradict each other, they just show how retarded you are and your emphasis on sample sizes that have absolutely no meaning while ignoring reality.

[JohnnySic]

Hollywood is crap in general.

First off the race of villians in fictional movies is completely meaningless in general and if you're all triggered and worked up over a white villian you have your own insecurities to deal with.

Second you can't say that Hollywood isn't casting non whites when they are actively casting non whites. To cars the sample size do you really need to count every film up and get a percentage? :oldlol:

"There should be 65% blacks as bad guys not 44%!" :oldlol:

It is meaningless, which is why its all the funnier/weirder that Hollywood is making such a big deal out of it.

Bruh, literally a liberal/woke actor from within the industry made this statement.

What are you even trying to dispute?


Youre being retarded again.


Go back to the other thread to showcase your insecurity in your leadership by stating that not all men are better leaders so its a useless thing to declare.

Who? What? Where? Why?

I don't think he means bad guys in the sense of a badass antagonist like Namor or Kang. I think he means a person who will be hated by the audience. The example he gave was a psycho cannibal.

The woke left is the worst group of people to ever exist in human history. Worse than Nazi's or any barbaric tribe. Worst of all time and by far the physically and mentally weakest.

Good piece of context here.

They're actively trying not to portray non-whites as vile characters who the audience loathe.

Woke leftism is cancer.

In all seriousness, this is spot on. From a mentality and belief-system standpoint, the Woke Mob is the worst kind of human being out there. The Germans and Nazis were exceptionally smart and innovative. Misguided definitely and evil without a doubt they were, they still accomplished things that no Woke Incel can ever dream of accomplishing. But what we are seeing with Woke ideology is clinical insanity being allowed to flourish in the mainstream without it being checked or challenged. It's a mind plague that is being allowed to spread and to destroy everything sane in its wake. And make no mistake, these Woke Leftists want you dead. So before some of you sissies soil and pee yourselves due to the Nazi comparison, the comparison is spot on. Woke Leftists are the new Nazis with a government body (The Democrats) behind them.

all i hear is a c level actor bitching about roles he wishes he was good enough to play.

every week there's a new episode of law and order (3 shows) with horrible evil guy and it's not uncommon for it to be played by a minority. if what this dude said is true, there would be zero.

I don't think he's talking about TV Series.

No doubt Gus was a phenomenal character, but isnt Walter the real bad guy in this show?

[Lakers Legend#32]

Poopsie quit sucking up to white people.

They will never consider you one of their own.

[Wardell Curry]

No doubt Gus was a phenomenal character, but isnt Walter the real bad guy in this show?

No, they're both bad.

If anything, Walter is the anti hero. A guy that does terrible things whose humanity you get to see and you want him to win despite the fact that he becomes progressively more rotten. It's a continuation of Tony Soprano in that regard.

The example he gave was a psycho cannibal.Good point. And we shouldn't take this as Nanjiani saying Hollywood doesn't cast nonwhites at all, just that they're hesitant to.
