Casting Actors of Color in Twilight

  • May. 5th, 2008 at 6:30 PM
The Twilight teaser trailer went up, but since it's only a minute long no Laurent, Sam Uley or Jacob Black. However, there is a great piece with Edi Gathegi who plays Laurent. Edi gets his featurette at about 3:10 minutes in.



Aside from the aforementioned, Angela Webber and Eric Yorkie were also cast as characters of color. Color me shocked. Laurent is posh, educated, charming and described as extremely handsome, while Angela and Eric are two of the only Forks High students that stick by Bella through out all three books.

i posted a review of *daughter of the bright moon,* a really neat old-school feminist fantasy novel that inspired xena. :) the link's above.

the main char, rifkind, is like a meta-dead-bro. she's brown in the books, but on the small screen, she's, uh, played by lucy lawless. good times were had by all.

In short: 1/4th of the movie is Power Armor Rambo vs. the Terr-Arabists for America Fuck Yeah Lulz. The other 3/4ths of the movie is entertaining comic book movie.

I wrote a full criticism here.

Discuss?

I am working to compile a list of science fiction novels and short stories that contain North American Indigenous characters - but science fiction, not what might be called fantastical because it contains Native spiritual elements. If you have something in mind, let me know!

Same ol' Song.

So, while everyone in America was having a fit about Miley Cyrus, her virtue and that Vanity Fair picture, a photo of The Disney Channel's Brenda Song was being used in a friggin' escort service ad.



Found via Angry Asian Man.

It's hard out there for a poser.

Margaret "B. Jones" Seltzer explains the hood to you. More info at Media Assassin.

MEDIA ASSASSIN has obtained what appears to be the only known copy of a damning video that Margaret “B. Jones” Seltzer’s publisher, Riverhead/Penguin, buried last month, once the book documenting the author’s foster home-living, gangbanging, drug-running past—Love and Consequences: A Memoir of Hope and Survival, right—was revealed to be completely and totally fabricated.

The 10:10 video, shot and edited before she was exposed as a liar, may be the only existing footage of Seltzer in her full-on “hood” persona.

Wow, Frank Miller Loves His Noir....

What is The Spirit? I just know it's based on older comicbook and Frank Miller is directing. It looks like one of Sin City's influences.

I was linked to a teaser and Eva Mendes' poster as Sand Saref (wtf? isn't that a font?).



Samuel L. Jackson also makes an appearance.

So, what is this?

EDIT: Thanks for the replies. It's been really eye-opening.
