Maybe it is North Korean hackers as Sony once complained about bogus hacks when employees leaked films

She probably feels much better when she looks at her bank statement.

Getting an acting job, no matter the reason, is a one in a million shot. If she refrains from obtaining a high horse & preaching from it, I wish her the best.

LOL, it’s turned into the “Burt Reynolds’ Memorial Thread” and he isn’t even dead, yet.

Burt is a lot more alive than the Star Wars franchise.

“It needed to be hijacked, LOL!”

Amen to that. Speaking of Burt, Saw his ex on a ME TV ad. WTH did Lonnie do to her lips?

Same here, I really liked Boogie Nights. It didn’t hold back. It didn’t hide the ugliness of the industry.

Correct...
Black and Asians or Black and Hispanic.
Usually ok in the USA but seldom a match on the global stage.

She’s of Vietnamese decent and was born in San Diego. So no she was not hired to satisfy Chinese anything. That’s just plain a stupid lie that came out when she was cast that is perpetuated by stupid people.

I seem to have heard somewhere that the Chinese own big theater chains in America and won’t show films that are down on China in any way. Maybe it was Arc Light.

In the 1930s, Hollywood bent over backwards to not offend the Nazis because they didn’t want to lose access to the German market.

Re: She was hired because of a requirement in Chinese cinema where content must be certain amounts of CCP approved messages, anti-American themes and a content of Chinese actors. Hollywood is taken over by this.

So, if that... is correct--

Then you cannot say she didn't have... a Chinaman's chance, eh?

Hey, man-- Its not like... she is Jamaican!

The most annoying Star Wars character since Jar Jar.

But at least Jar Jar was a subtle character, and in fact, could be the big bad.

I worked with a guy that was (and still is) in a Texas mixed marriage. I made a passing remark about it to my Mom and she wanted to know if my co-worker or his wife was “the black one”.

I could barely keep a straight face when I told, ‘Ma — that’s not a Texas mixed marriage. He went to Texas A&M and she went to the University of Texas in Austin. That’s a Texas mixed marriage!’

She thought that was a hoot!

So what you’re saying is, the studio doesn’t even have the bad excuse of “we need Asians in the cast if we’re going to make any money in the China market, or even be allowed to screen it there” to support such a bad casting decision?

And Vietnamese and Chinese aren’t exactly best pals. Even Ho Chi Minh once said, “I’d rather smell French s__t for five years, than Chinese s__t for a thousand years.”
