Olive skin is also typically found around the Mediterranean. So that also adds Greek and Italian as well as several others I would imagine.

I wasn't trying to make a big cry of whitewashing so much as being disappointed at her lack of skin tone. Olive skin has such a great richness to it after all and it's rather part and parcel of how I view Katniss in my mind.

I'm also going to be honest in that this is the first I've seen of the people being cast. I have no idea who they are or what they've been in as I don't follow a lot of movies/tv shows really.

Oh no. I wasn't responding so much to your specific comments and more the grumblings I'm hearing about how they didn't cast an "ethnic" actress. Getting Katniss's skintone would have been nice, but I see it as on-par with the other casting-not-to-character-specifications because the whole Not White thing is purely fan speculation.

In short olive skin tone =/= minority, and certain subsects of the fandom's focusing on that particular issue when there are equally "egregious" discrepancies is tiresome.


I realised after posting that the comment was a bit terse. I've had a couple of casting conversations recently where I feel like I have to say the same things repeatedly or be taken completely out of context and I think I took it out here, forgetting that not everybody here has heard the same arguments from both sides a hundred times. So I'm sorry about that. :)
