Are you fine if the next Storm actress won't be black?

This is actually in connection to about getting a black actor as Human Torch. So I was thinking, if the director decides to assign an actress who isn't black to play as Storm, are you fine with it? Whether your answer is "yes" or "no", which actress who isn't black would you want to play as her?

I'll answer first.

I would say "no!" I mean a big "NO". That's pretty much not the Storm I know. Storm is a very popular black comic character, she's even the most popular black comic book character, and not getting a black actress to play as her even if the hair is white, people would be confused.

But if I can't stop them, then I would like Kelly Brook to play as Storm.

Wait, Human Torch is going to be black? Can't say I'm a fan of that, tbh, especially given the way the actual team is set up.

Storm should be black, imo. Her African heritage is a large part of the character, and would be an awful change to make I think.

They're only rumors at the moment

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansi...n/news/?a=79760

people are going on about how it shouldn't matter if the actor can act, I know they did something with Harvey Dent with the Batman Tim Burton movies

personally i don't get why they should change them, If there's no Black character of character in whatever universe then don't.

But it's Johnny Storm. His sister is on the damn team, which the guy seems not to realise.

Is he gonna be adopted or something? I don't even...

I don't know anything about this so I'll just ask, are you sure it's Johnny Storm? Because if this happens to be Jim Hammond, the original Human Torch from Marvel #1 and it were set in the late '30's that would be ****ing brilliant.

Oh, so he did say Johnny Storm.

That's just dumb, and it shows that the guy doesn't really know the character.

Duncan was really the only well known person with the size to play Kingpin. Will Sasso doesn't seem like he would do the role well. I really enjoyed Duncan's Kingpin and would've loved to see him again in future Spider-Man or Daredevil titles.

Johnny should be white.
Storm should be black.
The end.
