Ah. Again, having not seen the movie I was just going off of his physical appearance, so...

When the movie first came out I remember quite a few people had issue with how ambiguous he looked/sounded. A lot of people weren't happy that his voice actor was Brazilian and in some of the publicity pictures Prince Naveen looked a lot lighter in skin tone. The overall implication being that Disney didn't want to commit to a black prince and therefore made him open to interpretation.

He definitely doesn't look white to me, at very least. Though honestly, having a mixed race couple would probably be even more groundbreaking for Disney since how often do you see that in popular media?

I personally liked Prince Naveen but also could see how some people took his character. I also agree with you on the interracial couple point. I just remember some people feeling that Disney thought a male black lead was too "threatening" so they had watered him down to make him more acceptable.
