My issue with Scarlet funnily enough is that she's Scarlet. She's too big of a star to really meld into the majors role. I just felt like I was watching black widow on screen. Sorta spoilers for anyone who cares but

Tap for spoilerthe majors body is full on robot so technically she could be any nationality and color but it would have fit better if they picked someone who fit her original motif since it sorta matters. With the whole, ghost in the machine thing. I'm a huge fan of the franchise and I'm sad that this was the big live action debut.

I can get behind that too, but I was referring to the backlash at the time it was released, it was all "cast people of that race to play a character of that race because inclusion is good." Iirc there was one around the same time that played a trans person but wasn't a trans person who received backlash too.
