When there are many actresses who fit that type and instead they go with an actress who does not, then yes that is a problem. I would say the same thing if the role called for a woman mixed European and Hispanic or European and African-American. Just because she is mixed European doesn’t mean she can play anything that has “mixed” in the description. I’m biracial Asian and European but I would never expect to represent people who are not even in the same ballpark as my background. That’s just silly.

This is a character specifically written with race in mind and that could show kids a representative that looks like them. That deals with the same issues and experiences. It’s dropping the ball to not do this right.

If that was the need, then find an actress who is mixed and looks more white.

But, this isn't about whether or not she looks a certain way. It's the fact is that she is white, Caucasian, mixed European, whatever term you like to use, and playing a woman who is mixed white and Asian.

I'm far from racist buddy. I'm not even sure what racial stereotypes you are referencing. Or what your logic even is.
