from wikipedia: Robert Downey Jr. as Kirk Lazarus, a method actor who dyes his skin black to play Sgt. Osiris. The role was originally written for a black actor, but was re-cast and re-written for Downey (thus calling for the skin-dying part of the plotline).

why did they have to re-write it? they coulda just left it how it was...but noooooo...there are a lot, A LOT of FUNNY black actors/comedians that woulda killed...but whatever, Hollywood always been the same, and will never change...

But now with the publicity this movie will get just because of Robert Downey, it will do much better in the box office than if an actual black guy did it.

Controversy sells.

you are breaking the fourth wall


when they say that the role was re-cast and re-written its not in our realm, its in the movie's universe.

the film is about the making of a Vietnam film.  In the film they are making a film and part of the controversy is this role was written for a black man but given to Robert Downy Jr.'s CHARACTER.  His character is such a devoted method actor that he takes the role as is and decides to undergo "negroplasty".


get it?
