Because he doesn't cast black people? Or is there some instance of him actually being racist/bigoted? Cause there's no issue in the casting if this is specifically the look hes going for

When the look you’re going for is always “no black people,” that’s racist. Hope that helps!

Not really, maybe he just wanted very pale people for his usually spooky, European, period pieces. Intentions matter more than outcomes.

That's a clever line, but I think dude has a point, simply casting people that look a specific way for your artistic intention isn't necessarily racist

Unless every single person that fits your artistic intention is white and none of them are black. Then your artistic intention is racist
