Been saying the same thing about white British actors for the last few years. Jackson actually sheds some light on why this is happening, though. I had heard that Brits and Aussies were cheaper than American actors but I did not know anything about the agents being better and actors being classically trained.

I strongly disagree with Jackson on a lot of the things he says, but he is dead on on this subject. It is an absolute shame that a Brit played MLK just as it is an absolute shame a Brit has played the likes of Lincoln and Jefferson.

We can just agree to disagree here. I want the best actor for the job. Period. Black, white, American, non-American.
