I vote for Danny DeVito
Reminds me of the bit at the end of Deadpool when he says they were considering Keira Kightly for Cable because she has range.
It’s weird how the reverse is somehow ok now. Anne Boleyn played by a black woman why not? Historical accurac? What even is that?? .
Edit: you’re all ignoring that most of the roles being blackwashed are not white, how is it ok for black culture to just appropriate our own ethnic figures?
It is different, if color of skin is a relevant part of the context of the story. Having John Brown played by a black man would be equally misleading.
For Anne Boleyn's story on the other hand, racism did not play a part, because it wasn't even invented yet.
Did… did you just say racism wasnt a thing in 1530s Tudor England?
White people were never opressed and there is no danger of erasing white people and their achievements from history, so yes, the reverse is very ok.
As someone loves history, it’s not ok. Especially when the “white” people being erased aren’t even white. Cleopatra wasn’t white but she’s sure as hell wasn’t black. A lot of the characters being turned black are Greek, Latino, Irish, Italian, Arab, Asian. So is that ok? For a black actor to get the job of every other race? Why not a blank woman playing pancho villa? Maybe get idris alba to play the Dali lama.
White people were never opressed
You need to study history then. Even if you mean oppressed in the US your narrative is wrong:

and so on....
Same as when SNL wanted men to play female politicians in sketches when Amy Poehler and Tina Fey were right there and smashed it in the end.
I mean they do this all time, for example, that amazon series about lord of the rings.
