I dont watch zombie shows
She not big enough to headline a major motion picture
Yes she is u bugging she stars in one of the most popular shows on the dam planet
Never seen it
Looks wack -
man, don cheadle don't look ? like miles davis...
as long as she takes the role serious, and it's a good movie, i can give a ? less who plays her...just do a good job....
I came to say this. Best example to ? this sign of the times twitter based fuckery is:
Denzel dont look ? like Malcolm
Malcolm was a light skin dude with red hair and green eyes n ? . By yall logic Devante from Jodeci shoulda got the part.
Better yet where's Terence Howard.
"Aww cmon Elijah Muhammad mane"

Speaking of Don Cheadle he killed when he played Petey Green
He dont look ? like him -

She never claimed that...she was on the cover of Ebony magazine a few years black and did an interview talking about being a black woman in DR. She says she's black all the time...with that said there's no way she should've gotten this role. That ? is just terrible casting
the fukk is being black in the DR? -

I mean she looks too much not like herself to be playing someone else in a biopic does she? Like that picture doesn't really look like Nina but it doesn't look like Zoe either. On top of the fact that Zoe can't sing and doesn't have any above average performances what does she bring to the table for this role?
Don't say it's to put people in the seats cause she doesn't body any of her roles. -
Mind as well get mary j blige to play janis joplin, get that bony no ass having ? all the way the ? out of here

All these ? is just ? cuz they have vaginas. There are many other actresses who would have bodied this role. But zoes black so everything's ok. She's average as an actress at best. -
Smh. Yeah I can't cosign this. Definitely bad casting

Given the numerous examples of great, even oscar worthy performances by guys that look nothing like the person. ..
Why? -

you can literally go all day pointing out actors that didn't look anything like the person they portrayed.
I still remember mexicans being ? off about J LO being cast as Selena.
If Zoe puts on a great performance people will get over it.

Danai Gurira would have been a better choice for this role. She can act and has features similar to Nina Simone
People keep saying this but what has she done besides Michonne? There is a big difference between having limited screen time on a show where you are the 4th main character (Rick, Daryl, Glen >>>>) and being the main character in a movie with most of the screen time. Outside of looks what makes her suitable for the role? Y'all logic is as shallow as those you criticise. -
yea i know that, but i'm just saying ? gotta chill with that "but they don't look allike"
denzel don't look like malcolm, jamie don't look like ray, angela don't look like tina... but if they take the role serious and study their mannerisms, and realy get into the role the movie can turn out fine....
we ain't even seen one scene yet, and people already dusting shorty...
now if she does a horrible job, that's one thing... but give shorty a chance first.... she been working on this ? for years..i think she's taking it as seriously as she possibly can...
but ? love to complain about ?
They also didn't have to put on a tan, and a prosthetic nose either -
I think what this thread and twitter verse is saying is that its ok for darker ? to play lightskin ?
But not the other way around
And im fine with that, away with u hellspawns
Soft girly cant fight ass ?
And ? ass ? that wont return texts in a timely manner if at all....i hate them -
and i still don't get how "looking like" someone is the only reason you should be cast as them.....
Saldana is a meh actress combined with the fact that she kinda acts like Stacy Dash and Ravon Symone's slightly smarter yet still dumb sibling.
This makes Black folks not want her to play a role which depicts her as a woman a strong Black woman's who was not shy about addressing the struggle of Blacks during her heyday.
Kinda like getting Kevin Hart to portray Michael Jordan in a movie that ain't his lane nor would it work.
why not give her a chance at it though..
i mean listen to her.....either she really cares about this ? .....or she's a better actress than yall giving her credit for....cuz i was feeling the passion in this interview....

she's been acting since 2004. michonne is her breakout role but she's experienced. her never being in a lead role is a wack excuse for her not to be considered. it literally can be said about every main actor and actress before they were given a chance to carry a movie
Zoe herself is a serviceable actress, but her performances has never blown me away. so questioning whether or not she can play an icon such as Nina Simone is fair
we will see -

Did she audition and was turned down? People saying she should be casted just because of her looks is wack when she didn't even audition. I am just pointing out the lack of logic with people just randomly dropping her name as if she would ? this role based on looks alone. As I said before IDGAF but naming Michonne has no weight behind it. -

If you found something ? in a joke/sarcasm about a basketball player being better than 3 other players than you got deeper issues. -
