Roland is not black and it's an integral part of the story that he is white.
I bet they tone down detta to the point race doesn't matter.
Bet she is 100% different than the books. Heck, we already know this since they cast Elba.
Clearly a case of casting having no clue about the actual content of the story.
I like Elba, but he isn't Roland and casting him forces them to change a major part of another character. This is a case where race is actually important.
pretty sure they know about the actual content of the story ... somebody wanted a black guy in there for diversity since 'black actors matter' ... simple as that ...

Hahahahaha no dude, he got the job because he's fricking Idris Elba. Look I like a lot of your posts and don't want to get into a heated debate hear.
The people bringing up the concerns about the racial tensions and their fear of how that will turn out are at least somewhat legitimate. But too with this whole PC agenda bullshite.
Tell me, did you even blink an eye at the cast list for Exodus: gods and Kings? Well neither did I. And when Elba was cast as the gunslinger, my eyes stil refrained from any blinking.
