You’re probably correct, however I believe Disney and everyone else knows this and are choosing to cast black actors in order to claim the movie failed due to racism and not a weak script.
I'm fully onboard with the "mean people are offended" smokescreen when they produce bad product that also is very visibly "progressive". It also works because a lot of people do fixate on that when it's the least of the problems in a reboot/remake.
