jsperfhey:hey grishaverse fandom its not the first time this has been brought up—and it certainly wont be the last—but we need to fucking talk about this. it is not okay for shadow & bone to cast a light-skinned actor to play jesper, a canonically dark-skinned character (just like its not okay for them to cast a skinny actor to play nina). theres even less excuse for them to take kit, an already light-skinned actor, and wash him out in promotional posters so that his skin tone is the same or even lighter than that of archie, who plays mal. i took several swatches from each poster to compare but you dont even need the specific colors to see that jesper is way too light.the bottom line: shadow & bone, do better. -- source link
