    A lot of white actors are British as well. Maggie and Rick from walking dead are British. White guy who plays Dr. Strange is also British. The guy who plays Deadpool is Canadian. Foreign entertainers are being prioritized not because they're better but because you can get the same amount of labor for cheaper. The same reason why certain jobs are outsourced to places like China and India because it's cheaper.

    Bro like who cares. Now if ur issue is that the British actors are taking away a job opportunity for a black American who is equally qualified who might have had a similar life experience to the role I can kind of understand but not liking it just bc they are British is kinda ignorant. Called acting for a reason.

    I can’t tell if this is serious or not. To be mad a British actor for…. Acting?? I’ve seen many British actors do great accents & the crazy part is when they study an accent from a certain region.
    However I bet we would never see a Black American actor do a British accent in a movie to where it sounds convincing. I think we need to hold American actors to a better standard like the British actors do. They sound too convincing.

    Ngl, in 61 years of Bond, 27 films and 7 actors, Bond has only been played by an Englishman twice. A quintessentially English spy/hero.

    Black Americans need to stop complaining and improve their acting skills and range. A British actor is literally a chameleon, that can play ANY part if they put effort in. A Black British actor can play American, but can a Black American play British? No.
    British Acting has its own academies, theaters and standards, that are well above whatever America has to offer, which is why serious actors always pursue theater at some point in their career to improve themselves. They literally come from the land of Shakespeare and acting history runs deep in the country.
    The only exceptional actors I've seen from America are people like Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp, their range and ability are amazing.

      As black Americans you don't get to tell us what to do, we are in homeland and we don't have to support immigrants portraying our iconic heros, those movies played by melanated British actors always flop. Black American actors also have been trained and went to some of the best acting school in the world. Let's not act like British actors are so much, the truth is they are cheaper and more docile.
