Ever since Entertainment Weekly reported in December that Director M. Night Shyamalan is making a live-action take on AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER has been causing controversy, but not about the movie being made into a live action film, but on the Cast Members he offered to play the roles to.
Roles:
Aang to karate-trained Texan Noah Ringer
Sokka to Jackson Rathbone (TWILIGHT)
Katara to Nicola Peltz (DECK THE HALLS)
Zuko to Jesse McCartney
Why is this causing such a controversy? This may all be due to the fact that the roles being offered to play Asian characters are all Caucasian actors.
