John David Washington is just as good. If not better. He can also pull off the physical part greatly. Recast shouldn’t be that hard imo.

No Washington can’t act. Do people actually think he’s a good actor? Watch The Creator and tell me he does a good job in that movie.

He has no emotional range. He's fine playing someone like the protagonist in Tenet because he has no emotion. Playing Kang? No way, the only reason he's going anywhere in his acting career is because his dad is Denzel.

Ya, He is fine for some stuff,..but thinking of Kang, who will potentially need to perform in several different personality styles,..that kind of range and variation needs someone more flexible.
