What do you think? Are you planning to check out this new series? Have you seen the National Treasure movies?
In answer to your question Simon, the movie/TV industry has finally realized that there are other people in the world besides white males. The racial and gender diversity in the US (and the world for that matter) is rich with very intelligent, talented and handsome/beautiful people that deserve to be seen in roles other than the obnoxious stereo type characters that they were allowed to have in Hollywood. It’s about time!!
Why does every single reboot of a TV show or movie have a lead actor who’s a different race or gender from the original?
Love this movie Nicholas Cage so good two of them. Not same style hopefully really good on Disney plus look forward to seeing it new series.
