Wanted’s Fox won’t be black? There’s been some consternation regarding the choice of Angelina Jolie playing the Fox in the upcoming Wanted Movie.
Some bloggers have expressed their opinions that the Fox should be black (or at least Puerto Rican according to one blogger), because the character is dark-skinned in the comic book.
Do I agree? While I see their point and agree totally that the character should have been kept true to the comic book…I like Angelina Jolie and think she can fill the role nicely.

My problem is that Fox looks exactly like Halle Berry. Why couldn’t they have casted her instead? And why did they make all the bad guys assassins? They were super villains.
Did anyone make a black/white issue when Will Smith played James West in The Wild, Wild West movie. Why is it an issue now? People always bring race into everything, that is really not important. If you are so smart on how a movie should be cast,, maybe you should go to Hollywood and make movies. Then you can cast them anyway you like. I am sure your mother will be happy you moved out of her basement.
