They cast teenage Storm, Jean, and Cyclops for the new X-Men series. The girl cast as Storm is Bi-racial/Lightskinned like Halle Berry. Tumblr thinks she isn't 'black enough' for the role. Granted, comic Storm is much darker...but the movie Storm is played by Halle Berry, so it wasn't that shocking they didn't cast someone darker.

Actually, comics storm is has been depicted as multi-racial (though after the ntenth retcon and the fact her looks tends to vary more then most depending on artist who even knows).

Considering that Halle Berry's performance as Storm is consistently TERRIBLE, I'd think they'd want to get further away from that...

I think it's funny Tumblr hasn't caught on to the trope of 'But Not Too Black'.

Not that I think it's acceptable, but this is not the first time nor will it be the last time this happens.
