We explore the practice of Hollywood miscasting actors in live-action comic book movie adaptations. BK Spades and JBvTheWorld examine how colorism and unexpected casting choices have impacted the portrayal of beloved superheroes and villains in live-action films. We’ll dig into fan reactions, storytelling implications, and the broader societal attitudes towards representation in media. The duo even digs into why inaccurate portrayals and changes can make or break a superhero movie. In the episode, we discuss the casting of Aaron Pierre as Green Lantern John Stewart and why it's a historical misstep for James Gunn and the DC movie universe. Tune in for a deep dive into the fascinating intersection of society and pop culture!
