The only way this will work is if it's a modern day retelling

Who are you quoting?

damn how come they don't do any movies based ancient African plays or poems?

Surely such a wise and utopian people would have invented the written word right?

That's not important. Virtue signaling is important.

ah thank you

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuu wanted to say Emma Roberts. Im truly a boomer

I'd rather have black casting of good stuff than shitty stuff glorified because it was written by someone who doesn't share the same color as the audience.

I'm unironially okay with Denzel playing in Macbeth, he is great in any role he is in. Also he is good dude himself.

>A24
nevermind what I said, fuck

This seems okay to me, black guy being cast as a murderer and a white woman as a coalburner who egged him on.

>Denzel
that's gonna be an instant watch for me

I really don't mind colorblind casting in shakespeare. It's like complaining a black musician plays debussy or something

Joel said: “It’s an absolute, absurd misunderstanding of how things get made to single out any particular story and say, ‘Why aren’t there this, that, or the other thing? It’s a fundamental misunderstanding of how stories are written. So you have to start there and say, ‘You don’t know what you’re talking about.’”

“You don’t sit down and write a story and say, ‘I’m going to write a story that involves four black people, three Jews, and a dog’ — right?” Joel continued. “If you don’t understand that, you don’t understand anything about how stories get written and you don’t realize that the question you’re asking is idiotic. It’s not an illegitimate thing to say there should be more diversity in an industry. But that’s not what that question is about. That question is about something else.”

Ethan concurred, adding: “It’s important to tell the story you’re telling in the right way, which might involve black people or people of whatever heritage or ethnicity – or it might not.”

Both are pretty much, Joel just got cucked by McDormand into adopting a mutt kid.

I hope if they modernize it they go the whole fucking way

Stop half-assing this shit hollywood Shakespeare may be timeless but his dialogue sure as shit ain't

exactly, plus Denzel was already in Much Ado About Nothing in 93
