"The feedback that I received from my agent was, ' just looked too old and sophisticated to be next to Drew,'" Long claimed in a new interview with Insider.

Continuing, Long said:
"I love Drew Barrymore, I think she's amazing, but I think that was just a nice way to say you're a little too Black. Personally, that's what I think. Because if you notice there were no brown skin [actors]. I mean, honestly, I would have been the blackest thing in the film."
Quote
Concluding, she stated:
"...that was clearly not the job and opportunity for me. So, no problem, I'll keep it moving."
:calmdownsis:
now... not too much on godley's angels. they said too sophisticated and thats what they meant :uhh:
She would've been better than the other white bitch
Was just about to watch the first one
Its such a classic
Cameron, Lucy and Drew >>>>>>>>>>>
Its crazy how much better the 2nd one is now that the new one was such a disgusting mess
Nia is gorgeous but I couldn't see her next Drew and Cameron either tbh.

here we go
next I'll see a post from GODly price complaining someone said she didn't fit the look for a Baywatch reboot
i don't think she was complaining
She was just telling her experience
I mean Nia Long being an angel is way more realistic than Kelly Price being a Baywatch slut
(https://i.pinimg.com/736x/5d/6e/e9/5d6ee9287fb18ccf15a6be778fffe699.jpg)
a Nia, Sanaa & Gabrielle in Rayshawn's Angels would've been dope though
Besides I can see her in it
Queen knows how to do funny

The director said to me, 'I can't wait for this. The first shot is going to be...You're going to think it's like yellow lines down a road, and you pull back and you realize it's the stitching, because the denim is so tight on your ass it's going to look like tarmac.' I was like, 'Oh, I don't think we're going to go down this road together.'"
Newton also revealed that Sony executive Amy Pascal didn't think she would be "believable" in the role because Alex "went to university and is educated." Newton reminded Pascal that she attended Cambridge, but the actress said Pascal responded to her by saying, 'Yeah, but you're different. Maybe there could be a scene where you're in a bar and she gets up on a table and starts shaking her booty.' She's basically reeling off these stereotypes of how to be more convincing as a Black character."
Eeek I could've definitely seen Aaliyah in it

Well did they lie? I couldn't imagine Nia in the mess.
It's on her if she thinks the reason they didn't cast her is because she's black.
I could see Nia during that era.
And wasn't the Charlie's Angels movie of the era where almost EVERY movie had a token black actor/actress? Yeah I'm not really understanding her viewpoint here.

yh in a minimal shitty role that got killed off in the first 15 mins :dead:
I think her point is valid because they tried the same shit with Thandie
She wasn't surprised or shocked hun
She's literally recounting her experience with the lack of diversity of roles, she wasn't bitter about it, she said if it wasn't for her, it wasn't for her.
