Just FYI for all you authors out there!

The Jim Henson Company is looking for someone to pen a new novel set in Jim Henson’s incredible world of the Dark Crystal. No published experience needed, all you have to do is write a damn good novel! Details can be found here:

I look forward to seeing the wicked awesome works that will come of this endeavor.

Casting appreciation gif.

This seriously pisses me off because TWO men of the “correct” ethnicity/race were asked to play the role of Khan. I don’t remember their names because this back when Into Darkness was in casting yo but they BOTH DECLINED.

So there’s a HUGE difference between “well, we asked the best in the business and they both said no, so we should go with another actor of the ‘incorrect’ race who is also very well suited for the role” and doing what the Hunger Games did which is literally only let white girls audition for Katniss.

When actors decline there is fuckall you can do. It’s shitty, no doubt, that Khan ended up being white, but BC did a great job in the role, while knowing he was third choice. I won’t begrudge him for taking it, and I won’t begrudge the casting crew for going with him after their best actors declined.

^ Bless.
