Man this shit writes itself... from Tarantino movies saying the n-word 500 times to this pussy ass bullshit

Wilson was hand-picked by director James Mangold to play Agent Mason in the major summer release. After a Zoom meeting with Mangold, she was cast and didn’t even have to audition, but when she received the script, she wanted to implement some changes.

🤣🤣 Instead of firing her for butting in on his script as a nobody Z-lister because she was "offended", they actually LISTENED to her...after hiring her from a ZOOM MEETING WITH NO AUDITION

“Well, I don’t want to spoil too much, but my character had a particular way of exiting the film,” Wilson told Variety. “And initially I found it to be a little too offensive and a bit problematic, and I was like, ‘We probably don’t need to say these words or have it done this way, and this is something I’m uncomfortable with.'”

Praising Mangold’s collaboration, Wilson added, “He was like, ‘You know what, you’re completely right, I hear you."

Jesus buddy, why not let her rewrite the whole movie??? It couldn't have been any worse...

Today's men have become such pushovers

A particular way of exiting the film? Did she say "Can you dig it? Sucka" and proceed to spinaroony out of shot?

Won’t give details = no need to even discuss this or care. It’s just a reverse-variation on “the fans are such bigots.”

All these nobody black actors.. sad. Sad none can become A- tier. All the famous black actors are all over 50 yo.

When all your fame is artificially crafted through empty social media narrative campaigns, it doesn't have legs to stand on when they stop investing in you.

They keep telling us that Zendaya or Millie Bobbie Brown are these megastars, despite basically nobody knowing who they are until after they were supposedly megastars and all their presence just disappearing after their movies end.

Nailed it!! Old school A-list black actors weren't presented on a silver platter to audiences as "the new A-List beautiful perfect Black actor" like they are these days...they were just great actors hired for their talents who happened to be black, then slowly over many roles became famous (like every other race of actor). I'll never understand how our culture has become so immature and backward.

I won't say they weren't hired because they were black, even in those days. But they still had to actually work before they were treated as worth anything.

I won't judge you for your tastes my man, but I'd put Alien Eyes above both of them. All at the bottom of the pole still, of course.

Zendaya can be a sweetie. Those eyes are like two ships passing in the night

I'd like to hear/read the original scene just to judge for myself...

In today's world once something has been deemed "blasphemy" by a righteously indignant Person of Color®, it can never be uttered or spoken of again. So I'm sure we'll never know.
