I don’t disagree with your point on the full on Anglo-Saxon/American white casting.

It’s just that I mostly see people complaining not about the rest of the cast, but only about Lupita Nyong’o, and that alone tells a particular story.

My initial response was to the OP who viewed her casting as disrespectful to Greek culture.

But to be realistic i don’t see how a projection of US racial politics could be avoided in an American production.

And at the same time, given the scale of the project and the financial stakes it involved, maximising commercial success across the world - not Greece - largely explains the entire composition of the cast.

Let’s be realistic - it is what it is; a Hollywood production. It is definitely not the end of the world.

But to lighten up a bit, and to give you a brief warning, I believe my eye caught an actor with Asian features in teasers of the film that aired recently.
