What are y'all thought on Storm being played sa pamamagitan ng lightskin short biracial actresses?

Storm is 5'11" with an athletic curvy frame and is medium brown to darkskin. Being seen as light as Angela Bassest and Dark as Rutina Weasley, yet on screen, she has been played sa pamamagitan ng Halle Berry and Alexandra Shipp. Taking into consideration soro shady political history, do you think this is intentional?

Storm Sagot

Britt601 said:
Chris Hemsworth looks like Thor. Robert Downey Jr. looks like Tony Stark. Chris Evans looks like Captain America. Chadwick Boseman looks like T'Challa (then again, they had someone who cared about making sure the main characters were close to their comic book counterparts in appearance). Rebecca Romijin looked like Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence's performance didn't grip me).

All these characters have a strong resemblance to the person they play in the comics, and yet Storm is the one person they can't get right. Halle Berry (phenomenal actress) and Alexandra Shipp (bleh) were so banal and run-of-the-mill in their portrayals that they were reduced to 'oh, this actress is in Cosplay' instead of playing the character. There really is no reason, *especially now* why they can't get someone that resembles Storm in the comics, Why is it that everyone can look the part, but Storm is made to look like something she's not? This woman in the photograph can easily play Storm {ig: melvnin (Gambian)} so I see no excuses to keep going with Shipp.

That excuse of 'Names sell pelikula in Hollywood' isn't an excuse to stand on either. There have been PLENTY of pelikula with big actors and they flopped.
