The Odyssey Has a Casting Problem
"Casting Ellen Paige as a man in the Odyssey is incredibly stupid. It is just a dumb kind of woke acknowledgement. I'm not going to judge the entire movie by that because again it's an entire movie and we'll see how it plays out. But it is indeed stupid casting."
Ben Shapiro criticizes Christopher Nolan's casting of Elliot Page (formerly Ellen Page) as a soldier in his upcoming film The Odyssey, calling it a transparently woke casting decision. Shapiro repeatedly refers to Page using female pronouns and her former name, describing the actor as a woman with mental disturbance who mutilated her body. He argues the casting makes no sense while acknowledging he will wait to see the full film before final judgment.
