If you know a 5 yr old little girl with red hair, alabaster skin and blue eyes like my daughter, you can imagine how much this will suck for her. Red heads are a tiny minority of the human race (<2%).

---

You mean the two million +/- black girls in America who are under the age of 16 may finally have someone to relate to like your daughter did all these years? The horror!!

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I am pretty sure the original little mermaid was illustrated with dark hair. I dont remember a description in the story describing her hair and eye color but it's been a while since my granddaughter and I read it.

I think H Berry will be a good little mermaid.

Such a shame no one is creative enough in the black community to create someone for two million +/- black girls in America who are under the age of 16 to finally have to relate to like my daughter. It's easier to steal than create, I suppose.

I guess actually creative people will just have to create more characters for uncreative troglodytes to steal from the <750k redhead girls under the age of 16 in the US.

Come'on, no one creative enough in the black community?

For every "black washed" movie remake nowadays, there were 3 whitewashed movies made back in the day. Plenty of white actors played minorities over the years.

Are you mad that the genie in Aladdin is black now too? None of this bothers me one bit.

You should try reading the article once in a while.

"The Danish writer's original story, which was published in 1837, centers around a beautiful young mermaid, who is described as having 'skin as clear and delicate as a rose-leaf, and eyes as blue as the deepest sea'. "

If Ms. Berry wears blue contacts, will you be OK? It doesn't seem a central point of the original story -- kind of like the red hair that you created -- but I don't want to ruin your poor daughter's day.

At least now we know who it is that focuses foremost on race. Snowflake.

This can't be real. If it is, I'm not sure I've seen a better example of "first world problems."

I would've thought everyone who "doesn't see color" would celebrate the casting director for not holding themselves to the standard set of assumptions from the previous film, and instead giving equal opportunity to everyone. Or is it just the red-headed "minority" that needs to be specially protected?

Well, they did steal Annie. And your post defeats itself because in many of these cases they very much are seeing race and purposely choosing on race. It just so happens they want a different race showcased that is not allowed to be white anymore. And when the shoe is on the other foot, they don't accept your color blind casting as was seen by the reaction when Michael Jackson was cast as a white actor in a prior film. That program was cancelled.
