Work must be scarce right now, especially with the wokeness being spread by people like Peter Dinklage about having “stereotypical” dwarf roles is some kind of -ist or -phobia 🤷♂️
Right? That's so sad. They don't realise that members of their community are walling others out of work.
Same with the metoo movement. Anyone who thinks that was about women's right to being treated better professionally is a moron. It was about older actresses who knew they got into the industry through sexual favours, removing the possibility for younger ones to do the same.
Dinklage is doing the same. Serious dwarf roles are good. Wanting to have those roles is good, he can do that, it's his right to choose what sort of a typecasting niche he wants for himself.
But he is removing the possible roles of other people like him who maybe... want to be creatures and funny people and such.
It's not demeaning for Doug Jones to be known as a creature actor, but it would be a HUGE nono for a person Dinklage's size to be known for the same kind of a specialization. Funny, huh?
Warwick Davis is spinning in his grave. Yes I know he's not dead.
He’s in it
I know that's the best part. He's spitting on his own legacy. The man he once was would shoot who he is now right in the head.
