Zoe Saldana’s ‘Nina’ Gets First Poster, More Online Backlash

[Dupac]

Did they really spray her darker? LOL, SMH, and LOL again.

she was blue in Avatar

And Green in Guardians of the Galaxy

Getting sprayed black is not outlandish to her.

To play an alien, cool. I understand that, but them casting people know they trifling for this one.

But yo, I never knew who the chick in Avatar was.

i thought she was really ugly based off of pirates in Caribbean..

shorty got range

 

[damobb2deep]

lol I just remembered Larenz Tate looked nothing like Frankie Lyman... but why do fools fall in love was a great movie...

 

[TheGOAT]

Danai Gurira would have been a better choice for this role. She can act and has features similar to Nina Simone

Never heard of her.

Zoe got star power to put people in the seats

She's playing Tupac's mother in the biopic...Mischonne from walking dead

I dont watch zombie shows

She not big enough to headline a major motion picture

Looks wack

 

[S2J]

man, don cheadle don't look shit like miles davis...

as long as she takes the role serious, and it's a good movie, i can give a fuck less who plays her...just do a good job....

I came to say this. Best example to kill this sign of the times twitter based fuckery is:

Denzel dont look shit like Malcolm

Malcolm was a light skin dude with red hair and green eyes n shit . By yall logic Devante from Jodeci shoulda got the part.

Better yet where's Terence Howard.

"Aww cmon Elijah Muhammad mane"

 

[TheGOAT]

Speaking of Don Cheadle he killed when he played Petey Green

He dont look shit like him

 

[2stepz_ahead]

She deserves the backlash , she claimed she wasnt black.

She never claimed that...she was on the cover of Ebony magazine a few years black and did an interview talking about being a black woman in DR. She says she's black all the time...with that said there's no way she should've gotten this role. That shit is just terrible casting

the fukk is being black in the DR?

 

[Copper]

Lmao

@du

Shit looks like a SNL skit

 

[Los216]

Lmao

@du

Shit looks like a SNL skit

I mean she looks too much not like herself to be playing someone else in a biopic does she? Like that picture doesn't really look like Nina but it doesn't look like Zoe either. On top of the fact that Zoe can't sing and doesn't have any above average performances what does she bring to the table for this role?

Don't say it's to put people in the seats cause she doesn't body any of her roles.

 

[white sympathizer]

Mind as well get mary j blige to play janis joplin, get that bony no ass having coon all the way the fuck out of here

 

[not_osirus_jenkins]

All these niggas is just bitching cuz they have vaginas. There are many other actresses who would have bodied this role. But zoes black so everything's ok. She's average as an actress at best.

 

[Recaptimus_Prime360]

Smh. Yeah I can't cosign this. Definitely bad casting

 

[S2J]

Smh. Yeah I can't cosign this. Definitely bad casting

Given the numerous examples of great, even oscar worthy performances by guys that look nothing like the person. ..

Why?

 

[S2J]

Henry Hill

Henry Hill

 

[Anti_matter]

you can literally go all day pointing out actors that didn't look anything like the person they portrayed.

I still remember mexicans being pissed off about J LO being cast as Selena.

If Zoe puts on a great performance people will get over it.

People keep saying this but what has she done besides Michonne? There is a big difference between having limited screen time on a show where you are the 4th main character (Rick, Daryl, Glen >>>>) and being the main character in a movie with most of the screen time. Outside of looks what makes her suitable for the role? Y'all logic is as shallow as those you criticise.

 

[D0wn]

man, don cheadle don't look shit like miles davis...

as long as she takes the role serious, and it's a good movie, i can give a fuck less who plays her...just do a good job....

DON CHEADLE IS ALSO PRODUCING AND PUTTIN HIS MONEY UP FOR THAT MILES DAVIS PROJECT DOE

yea i know that, but i'm just saying niggaz gotta chill with that "but they don't look allike"

denzel don't look like malcolm, jamie don't look like ray, angela don't look like tina... but if they take the role serious and study their mannerisms, and realy get into the role the movie can turn out fine....

we ain't even seen one scene yet, and people already dusting shorty...

now if she does a horrible job, that's one thing... but give shorty a chance first.... she been working on this shit for years..i think she's taking it as seriously as she possibly can...

but niggaz love to complain about shit

They also didn't have to put on a tan, and a prosthetic nose either
