Brownwashing. The UK is already a South Asian nation in some way.
Also go to https://imdb.com/title/tt9243804/fullcredits/cast?ref_=m_ttfc_3 past all the Indians, and the placeholder type character names (King, Queen, Magician, Middle Sister, wow, really just the hooker OCs got names there), and go to the bottom.

You'd be very hard pressed to find anyone black and in Africa with any sort of big hair. Commonly they're just going skinhead, men and women.
Why did he take the role? Because he’s subverting English history and mythos. He doesn’t want the face of English stories to be that an English man, an Anglo-Saxon, but rather the face of an non-European immigrant, of a new comer. He wants to take your place in your own history and heroic stories, and he wants to be celebrated for it.

Ironically, I pulled a self-insert in my fervor to respond. Which is what I was trying to rail against in the first place. My sails need wind, where has it gone?
I still hate it, regardless.
Jealous bitches. You will never be European.
