So a future movie about the Ukraine war is perfectly fine if Zelenski is portrayed by a very talented black woman and Putin by a Japanese drag queen?

Perhaps we as a society can eventually get to the point where nobody cares what color skin people have. That seems like a great outcome to be.

For historical depictions, it matters.

Maybe. If race matters to the story, then it might be confusing if the person doesn’t look like the race they are supposed to be, to some viewers. If race isn’t really part of the story, I don’t see how it matters.
