They acting tho. Should go to the best actor. If you think someone is a better actor and got skipped over that's one thing. But roles shouldn't be given out because of what country you were born in. Should be based on capability.

This is no different than people being upset about ol girl playing Nina Simone
Any suggestions on who should replace him?

Ignorance can be remedied. Stupidity is incurable.
It's a lot different. Google colorism if you don't know how they're different.

This is stupid. Warner Bros should respond with:
"How bout you petition deez nutz. Make your own fuckin movie and cast whoever you want in it. Witcho broke ass."
