Would you support this "actor" playing the role of Jesse Owens in his 1930's Olympics success. We don't have enough "caucasian, southern, redneck, males" in hollywood right now... they need work too.

The real Jesse Owens, in case you didn't know it was a highly acclaimed athelete in the 1930's that won Gold medals in Track and Field.

Don't ask why, it's for the purposes of "diversity" and "inclusion" to meet the appropriate standards and such. And they're cheaper to boot...

you can presume in a $100 mm film, the writer probably made about a million, the director got $5mm, it probably has 2 big stars each making about $10-$15mm ($100 mm is considered a mid-tier movie with a little action but not a summer blockbuster and will be released in early spring or before the big Christmas movies). The studio counts marketing - maybe $30mm as part of the budget but in reality, that’s kind of an inflated number and part of “Hollywood accounting.

This in turn means that the more you have to pay an actor, the less money is available towards special/practical effects, hiring quality writers, directors, stuntmen, production company.
