Can someone explain to me why they chose to use a Japanese actor for the role of a Chinese immigrant? Certainly there are excellent Chinese actors skilled in kungfu that could do this role. I’m not trying to make any racial issue out of it, but I cannot be the only one who can tell the difference between Asian people. To make a film or show more believable and get the audience more emotionally invested in the story, I think it is important to make the characters believable. I have the same issues with all the fake Germans, Russians, etc. that Hollywood uses instead of hiring native speakers. But that is another story.
