Entertainment journalist Kathia Woods claimed on Twitter that the “Avatar” film series is guilty of “cultural appropriation” by casting White actors as the fictional Na’vi aliens.
Americans shared if they plan to see the long-awaited "Avatar: The Way of Water" set to premiere in theaters Dec. 16, 2022, over a decade after the original.
However, Woods offered a less excited perspective of the film, suggesting that it’s an example of"cultural appropriation" with White actors portraying the fictional alien race the Na’vi. Fans attend a premiere for the film Avatar: The Way of Water, at Dolby theatre in Los Angeles, California, U.S., December 12, 2022 and Director James Cameron arrives at the world premiere of 'Avatar: The Way of Water' in London, Britain December 6, 2022.After several social media users mocked and attacked the tweet shortly afterwards for claiming that playing alien characters is somehow"appropriation," Woods made her Twitter account private.
Washington Examiner columnist Becket Adams agreed, writing,"it's true. it's disgusting james cameron didn't cast any actual na'vi actors in a movie about the na'vi."Libertarian writer Hannah Cox tweeted,"When you're so woke you start grouping made up aliens in with actual people of color. Like this is so offensive, what the heck."European Conservative contributor Alberto Miguel Fernandez,"Assume this is a parody account.
