I don't have a problem with a black person playing Cleopatra. I mean if White Liz can make it work why can't a black actress? Or Hispanic or Egyptian? I mean.. we do have Egyptian actors right? I just wish Jada had used a lighter skinned back actress. More realistic looking. (But we know Hollywood will take 2 dark parents and give them a light kid or a mixed couple and give them a kid with dark skin and totally nappy hair .. My family is proof it doesn't work that way IRL)
It's like when Hollywood would use white actors for all parts. White, Black (using painted on blackface) , Native American, Hispanic and Other.. I mean Cool Yul played Ramses and had me thinking he was Egyptian most of my life. Great casting.
So . Why is everyone so upset about a black person playing Cleopatra? I mean.. she was in Africa right? Obviously didn't look like Liz Taylor., but that was OK?
So, don't complain. If this portrayal was being done in ancient times, Cleopatra would be portrayed by a male stage actor. As was all acting back then.
This show is very informative. If not enough for you then get on line and do your own research.
