Saw it after I posted I did throw in the extra that sub-Saharan Africans are generally a different race from Northern Africans and idiots can't seem to gather that distinction.

Here are some actresses from the region that probably have similar complexion to Cleopatra:

Sofia Boutella (Algeria)




Nazanin Boniadi (Iran)



Basma Hassan (Egypt)

Does not compute.

Doesn’t matter anyway. No matter who they cast, nobody in that role tops Liz Taylor and her magnificent cans.

If only one of those Kardashian broads had talent and could act one of them would be a good pick to play Cleopatra. Middle eastern with a bit of African in them.

Not intentionally. Everyone knows Dark Sienna, Midnight Black, and Van Dyke Brown were in short supply during the time of the Egyptians. They saved those colors for their hair. 3/4 of those baws have fros.



Middle Easterners sport fros all the time. Ancient Egyptians would look just like that. (So would Jesus and most of the people from the bible)

I thought Rome did a pretty good job of casting cleopatra. Although they did make her a sex-crazed drug addict.

they should get Priyanka Chopra to play Cleopatra... she's got that exotic look, and it would be less drama vs. hiring a white actress... plus, it would be a huge draw at the box office, being every indian everywhere would flock to the movies to see her...

In all honesty, if they want to go for historical accuracy, then they need to get an eastern Mediterranean (Israeli, Lebanese, Syrian, Greek, Egyptian) actress and give her a sober portrayal. The Rome series played far too much on Roman perceptions of Eastern sorceresses and mysticism. The Ptolemaic dynasty was as imperial Greek as they came - most of them (until Cleopatra, and that's only because she was exiled for a time) couldn't even speak Coptic.

is not the same as

exactly!

and of those two, lady gaga has a better look that matches what cleopatra has always been portrayed as

jolie isnt even that pretty and doesnt even fit the look no matter what color person is chosen for that role

we all know where its going any way and it will be a total train wreck bending to the SJW and the film will be a disaster as a result

cleopatra should be a stunning beauty queen, but the will end up with PC alternative that can pass the qualifications for that roles looks
