Looking over my childhood crushes -- not counting furry characters -- three out of four have been Black in recent or forthcoming film adaptations.

  • Catwoman from Batman
  • Rogue from X-Men
  • Ariel from The Little Mermaid
  • Mary Jane Watson from Spider-Man


Yes, I'm counting Michelle as a film representation of Mary Jane Watson. That's why they call her MJ. It's like Bowser / King Koopa from Mario or Bluto / Brutus from Popeye.

Since X-Men already has one Black woman in Storm, I could see them casting a biracial actress to play Rogue. In that regard, I think it would be fun if Disney were to lure Zoe Kravitz herself over to the mouse side.

You gotta admit, Zoe would look great with that white streak in her hair. She has the right figure for the role too.

So you have a type and content creators are aware of this?

Sorry. I'm not feeling that casting decision.

I would say redheads are my type, but only two out of the four mentioned are redheads. (And I think Zendaya and Margot Robbie are the two best looking women in Hollywood right now -- neither of which have red hair.) There isn't really consistency in personality except I guess they're all flirty in one way or another.

Catwoman from Batman

tbf, she was sometimes black in the comics, too, but idk if it was Selina Kyle.

This is one of those things where it certainly all seems like it's making sense but a few things just don't add up

I feel like Selina Kyle is a character who would be Black if she were created today.

I doubt it. They're going to use storm for the token.

Also, I hope they do the scene where Rogue steals all of Carol Danvers powers.

Rutina Wesley from True Blood would honestly be perfect

I don't know if it was just from the cartoon. Just from the small clip of her dad in the cartoon. It seemed like her uses a lot of racial slurs .

All I care is that she starts as a definite villain, and it's Carol's absorbed personality that influences her to join the X-men.

I just realized she'd be the most popular woman in the MCU if she destroyed Captain Marvel.
