It says it in both the article title and the article itself. Unless you're referring to Optimus's post, which in and of itself does not represent the entire article to which it refers.

Hollywood has become a place where it doesn't matter who you are, look like, etc you can play any part, be cast for any part to do otherwise is considered discrimination.
It is a different world out there for the millenials and younger. My guess is that after into the Spiderverse stressing "it can be anyone in the suit" They went with bank. Golding is apparently in demand after Crazy Rich Asians. Star Power. They want to fill the seats. Personally? I see nothing in his background to suggest martial arts training. He was a Malaysian TV host. (Hey Waterpark!) (could be wrong though) That is (to me) a key element in the character. Just like when they casted Jinx and grabbed Elodie Yung who was a martial artist, a martial artist should have been cast. Then again, with CGI and stunt people, maybe he does not have to do any martial arts. Get a stunt person to wear his clothes, film him from angles where you don't see his face or CGI his face. The leaked script said he was in Peru street fighting at one point. South American and Malaysian are not...well it doesn't matter to studios anyway. Or to younger audiences. I think we should all just take it easy on the Snake Eyes is a blond American rhetoric. That throws a person into "toxic nerd" toxic fan" territory. Either way, Golding better be hitting the training camp hard. There are built in expectations for this character. Ok so I am a "toxic" fan. Sue me. |

I see this movie taking place before he stopped talking and before he put his mask on. I would imagine only near the end of the film would we possibly see any of those.

And that's where I'm coming from as well. I'm the least a bit concerned that he's Malaysian. I wouldn't care either way. Well like you said if they're going to cast him he needs to hit the training camp really hard. In my opinion for the role of Snake Eyes since hes a masked character that does not talk I don't see why they can't just cast a well choreographed fighting stunt person. Plus with all the rave about the Crazy Rich Asians I don't see how his fans will benefit too much from him since you really won't see him or hear him unless they have Snake Eyes talking this time.
It all depends on the writers take. The producers of Joe really wanted him to speak in the first two movies. Just like Channing Tatum was Duke, this is all about who is the hot property right now and who will sell seats. Tatum, The Rock, Golding. Star Power.

That should be obvious to everyone. Anyone that that thinks they’re going to cast a handsome, in demand actor and then cover his face for the entire movie is nuts. My guess is this is going to be like Batman Begins. And even after he gets scarred, he’ll wear a mask that looks like his old face just like how they did in the comics. It’s more important to have a good actor in the role than it is to have a martial artist.
