Re: White action hero too generic but female not bankable
EXACTLY!! There are no descriptions of white or black for the lead because they can get Denzel or a white guy. SALT was a 'guy' in the spec. Didn't say white or black. Even TRAINING DAY didn't describe white or black. I've known a few Alonzo's who were not black. Just sayin'. Unless the casting director screws up and casts a black guy in a white role, then you have problems. DAREDEVIL anyone?
