@dernman: Sorry to be the one to break this to you, but actors are paid to ACT.
Looks can be tweaked and in the best case scenario no one cares how you look if you do the job well.
Need I remind you:
Meanwhile if they went with his suggestion and casted this:
We can all be treated to yet another disaster of a Spidey flick because this chick most likely can't act her way out of a paper bag. Then Spidey's down in the dumps again while fanboys cry "But guys! It's like the comics! She has red hair! Why doesn't everyone else love what I love?"
I'd much rather take option A than B :P
Again bullshit. If nobody cared we wouldn't be having this conversation that's been had over and over and over when they cast people who don't look like the role.Yes actors are paid to act and looking the part is part of acting. I always hear this same bull response from people who defend this crap. Derp I'd rather have one over the other. derp. You can ignore one over the other. I'd rather have a higher standard and have as much of BOTH A and B as I can. THat way I'd actually get to see the character on screen and not a different character who just shares the name.
