(Anonymous) 2014-03-24 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)I loved Idris Elba in Thor, I thought he was the best thing in it. Years before seeing the films though, I read the Norse tales and my mental image of the character was a typically white, blonde/red haired Scandinavian. If I had been 'fantasy casting' the Norse tales on Tumblr, I probably would have picked someone with that colouring. It wouldn't even have occured to me to pick someone of colour for the role, because of the historical context.
Casting from auditions is very different, and picking on the ability of people to play the role and not their race makes perfect sense to me.
