I agree with everything you said. The age gap is not just canonical, I think, but it makes sense in the context. Maxim is older and more experienced, the heroine is young and relatively sheltered. That puts her at a disadvantage when she becomes the second Mrs. DeWinter, which is absolutely on point.

Casting a non-white actress would help reinforce that sense of isolation and otherness the heroine felt in her new home, so I think that's a great idea.

Especially if (when you have them go back to her home) she's the ONLY non-white person there, even among the servants. You wouldn't even need to ever explicitly address race, you'd just have this huge visual reminder of what an outsider she is.
