This reminds me that I'm dreading the casting of the potential The Raven Cycle tv series (if it ever gets made).
Fandom is really set on Ronan being black (which has a few unfortunate implications tbh), despite being explicitely written as white in the books. I recently re-read them and took notice of it, because I thought it was another Hermione case of 'everyone knows but it's not 100% in the text (I know there is that 'white as a sheet' moment, but I understand that people can talk that one away).

I actually wouldn't really mind if they cast Ronan as POC, but I'm really dreading the wank if he isn't.
