With Great Power...

Not every story is about seeing yourself in it. Sometimes it’s about learning to see other people too.

its funny how nobody said anything when the casting calls came out with it specifically being mentioned that the roles were open to people of all races/sexual orientation etc etc but as soon as poc gets actually get cast as main characters people lose their shit..... it really makes u wonder about how many people see messages like "open to everyone" and just assume that its performative because their lizard brains are convinced that only a white people should get the important roles

i literally cannot fucking believe people they have the fucking audacity to bully a literal fucking kid who got the role ON HER OWN ACTING MERITS just because they're too obsessed with their idea of a perfect white blonde main character its absolutely disgusting

unpopular opinion but i’m disappointed by who they cast for annabeth…a part of her character is defying the dumb blonde stereotype.

I don’t even have constructive criticism for you. Grow up and shut up.

Funny how y’all are so focused on “casting the best actor regardless of race” but when the actual best actor cast is POC then suddenly that rhetoric doesn’t matter anymore.

not percy in the show being a strawberry blond/light brunette. they better dye his hair 😬

😒

grover being played by a desi actor makes my little indian heart extremely happy

i really like the people they cast for the golden trio, and i think they’ll be great in the show, but my one question is, why the heck are they so small? Walker’s only 4 foot 9, and Leah’s even shorter, at like 4 foot 7. I don’t know how tall Aryan is, but I swear, when i was eleven, two years younger than them, i was like 5 foot 2 and would’ve been towering over them. i mean, i was kinda tall for my age, but still. i just don’t understand. they’re so tiny. miniscule, even. but somehow they’re still around my age????? it just doesn’t add up.

Babe what the fuck are you even talking about. People are different heights. They are real human beings, the correct age for the casting, with real human heights. Height has no impact on acting skill. What the fuck.

I'm sorry but what happened to book accuracy??? Uncle Rick explain.

Like yes I totally support diversity but when you already have characters, why change them? New story? Go wild. Old story? Leave it alone.

Please shut the fuck up. Imagine whining about someone’s skin color. Annabeth can be the same character in any race, because zero percent about what makes her interesting has to do with her whiteness.
