... wtf

Yes, It's real. It's the new Teen Titans Live-Action.

>character is orange skinned with white features
>instead of a tanned white woman they cast a she-ape from deepest, darkest Africa

[Auli]

I've never really seen that she has orange skin.


Thought she was tan.

I knew about tar black Starfire but I never noticed they got a dumpy Raven. Shameful.
Who is this flick even for? Normalfags don't read comics, but I'm sure a decent amount have seen the cartoon. This casting is more than a little step down from 2D perfection.

I don't remember Starfire being a black, tranny hooker.

It's being made so the media can have a circle jerk.

Wouldn't an Asian actress have made more sense? I mean, her skin is like orange-yellow-ish, and I think some artists give her somewhat slanted eyes to make her look more exotic.

I guess they either want to hook her up with Robin so they can have the press praise them for being progressive, or they hook her up with Cyborg so that Cyborg doesn't have to date a white women.

Literally the only reason you would race-swap one of your characters by making them black is so you can shut down criticism as being racist. The only race-swaps that were ever remotely done well were Sam Jackson Nick Fury and maybe, maybe, Michael Clarke Duncan Kingpin

I could see Raven as a chinagirl, dunno about Asteroidwater.

They could make Cyborg a robot ifyaknowwhatImean.

It's not gonna have Cyborg in it. DC are insistent that Cyborg's a Justice League character even though he's only in the Justice League because they can't be bothered to use the black Green Lantern
