There isn't a 23 year old on earth that could have played Picard's son, instead of a 34 year old?
I thought Jack Crusher 2 was meant to be in his late 30s

“We’re trained to be like, ‘If I’m not exceptional, I won’t be loved.’ Certainly, I think that was my thing,” Gatwa shared. “So, yeah, I think I’m just learning now like, ‘Oh, you are allowed to be loved.’ You don’t have to be excellent or aspire to that term, ‘Black excellence’. What the hell?”
He continued, “There’s so much white mediocrity that gets celebrated, and Black people, we have to be absolutely flawless to get half of [that] anyway. So, I’m slowly training myself out of that and being like, ‘No shit. You deserve love just for existing.’ And that has taught me to be a lot more loving as well, in a weird way.”

Because I am literally never not thinking about weird meta, blurring lines between reality and narrative, and the whole concept of actors becoming their characters, I am now entertaining thoughts of a Shadow of the Vampire-style story wherein a late-2010s-style all-female The Lost Boys remake gets derailed when the lead actress suddenly starts not showing up to shooting because she's sleeping all day...

Kids shouldn't have to be our heroes. Not in reality, and not on TV.
The recent news of Jennette McCurdy coming out as yet another child star abused by Hollywood made me want to say it outright: I don't want an Animorphs adaptation starring actual kids.
I want an animated series voiced by adults, or by kids who work <10 hours a week. I want a movie where babyfaced adults play pretend. I want a digital deaging of unionized talent who earn a living wage and want to be there. If nothing else, I want a movie made like the Narnia series: filmed on a yearlong string of Saturdays so that the child stars never missed a day of school, letting the voice cracks and zits happen as they would. I want a pretend version of my favorite pretend story to be made by people who have full sets of citizen rights, the skills necessary to negotiate their own contracts, and the ability both to enjoy the work they do and to walk away if necessary.
I just want to say it because in the past I've poked fun at AniTV for having a 27-year-old play a 14-year-old, and because I've loudly advocated for diverse casting that matches actors' identities to characters'. But I'm mocking the unconvincing 14-year-old in the same spirit I'm mocking the unconvincing skunk puppets and tiger stock footage. And I'm advocating for disabled parts to go to disabled actors, who are adults who can self-advocate. I'd rather my 14-year-olds were played by 27-year-olds than have any 14-year-olds ever star in TV shows, with all the scrutiny and body-shaming and missed education and exploitation that comes with doing that kind of job while also not legally allowed to own property or get a different job or renegotiate your own contracts.
Anyway. That's all.

just learned today that Nate Mann is half-Jewish from his father's side. his great-grandfather was a Jewish immigrant from Hungary. Rosie himself was also a Jewish-American man. and this bit right here:
shows that Rosie's personality somehow echoes with Nate. such great casting...

Someone pointed out that the biggest problem with live-action Snow White isn’t anything to do with the dwarfs. It’s the idea Gal Gadot would ever be jealous of Rachel Zegler’s looks.
