Given that I was in Harry Potter fandom when the rage about casting an Asian Cho Chang* was going on, I probably shouldn't be surprised by this, but, um....

*Probably mostly due to fans wanting to be in the movies and resenting any actor who got a part we they had previously been able to see as available, but I never saw anyone complaining about how an actor being cast was totally not fair because they were white, or British come to that. And there were a lot of Americans trying to sound British so they could try out for those films.
