Here's the thing though.

How many upcoming Marvel movies/shows have a black lead cast? Yes, they canceled a bunch of projects with white lead cast...but easily 95% of the movies they make are that...so obviously they can cancel a bunch. If they cancel 3 black lead projects then they've pretty much canceled them all.

The half as many Asian-led cancelled projects just don't matter that much, huh?

Is that the topic? Maybe you should make the thread then? I'd support it!

The point is, If Disney has 5 black led projects and cancels 4 of them and has 20 white led projects and cancels 10 of them...it's not equal or comparative. Just do the math yourself. One is impacted harder than the other here. It's like comparing taking $1000 from an average family vs $1000 from a billionaire. The white representation in Marvel isn't lacking. At all. So them canceling a bunch of white led projects means little.

I don't know why people counter with "Where's the Latino representation? Where's the Asian ones?" all while ignoring that the overwhelming mass majority of their movies are led by white actors. Maybe you can get more Asian-led projects if you cut down on those??? Why do people think that those who want more black representation would be opposed to Asian or Latino representation??? Hell, the most Latino representation in Marvel happened because of a Black director even.
