[ASIAN BOSS] Is The Asian Lead For Shang Chi "Too Ugly" For Chinese People?

[Kami]

I feel bad for the actor...

 

[elolery]

I think it's good that a rough-looking actor was chosen for a martial arts role

 

[Nayeonnie]

Yeah he isn't what most would call handsome, but it's pretty realistic for a marvel movie so idk it makes sense

 

[carol danvers]

But he's not ugly, maybe just average looking but that's not a bad thing. Plus he's charming af and funny, which in my book is better

 

[Joker]

Rather have him than some white guy playing an asian role. They should be grateful they didn’t Scarlett Johansson his role.

 

[PANN]

This is my first time seeing him, and he’s not ugly in the slightest wtf

Whoa that was hard to watch.... wth is wrong with these people, prefer actors who looks like puppies!!?? To cast an actor just for his looks, will ruin the movie!!!! If he is a good actor, it will make up for. And what happened to make up does wonder!?
And beside he is not ugly, he may not be a pretty boy that does aegyo (not that I know if he does or not) but he has his charm...
Also the Chinese people will not be happy no matter who the choose, remember when Yui yifei was cast as mulan, they said they pick her because of her looks...

 

[fullofjoy]

He looks the part so...

 

[grainy]

i think they were all pretty reasonable in explaining why they feel that way.

And I'd agree he doesn't cut the typical Chinese 'heroic' figure.
