In light of the uproar over Scarlett Johansson's casting to play a transgender man in a movie--she's been forced off the movie now--I'd like to ask what are the rules now?

Going forward, is it acceptable to require than anyone playing a black male character be black and male?  A white lesbian character must be portrayed by a white lesbian actress, not a straight one?  And the director...can the director of a movie set in Asia be anything but Asian?  When you stage Othello, you have to cast a bona-fide Moor for the title role?

From now on, no one may pretend to be something they are not, and no one who is not that thing, whatever it is, may tell any stories about it or make any money on that project?

Pretending to be something you're not while portraying a fictional character is VERBOTEN.

ScarJo, the greatest actress of our time, was forced off a project by those evil liberals because they demanded a transgender actor play the part. They don't know what they're missing, she was great as an Asian woman in Ghost in the Shell.


The man. The myth. The legend.

ScarJo is short for Scarlett Johansson

Verboten is German for forbidden

Thank you.  Yes, those parts translated just fine.  What I don't understand is the meaning of the comments.

Not sure how "fictional" turned into that gobbledygook. 

Rome

Babyhands chose to publicly side with an ex-KGB murdering dictator over his own intelligence and law enforcement communities. 

I'm trying to conceive of what would have happened if Obama had done the same but I can't quite get there. 

Simply incredible.

I sympathize with him

Yet women will still vote for him.  If they refuse to help themselves, too bad.
