I thought Tilda Swinton did a great job........ Wouldnt have minded an ASIAN MALE actor for the role either if it was a good actor {nm} gogreenytd Jul 11, 11:16

There are many good Asian male actors who never got the chance. {nm} Antibody Jul 11, 11:28

Asia is a big place. What do you REALLY mean by an "Asian actor"? {nm} forlorne Jul 11, 12:23

EMPERORS NEW GROOVE (which was a production nightmare, but kind of a cult fav) could work. But would definitely get relegated to Disney+ notfabio Jul 11, 11:21

Tom Holland as Kuzco, David Harbour as Pacha, Zoe Saldana as Yzma, and get Warburton back as Kronk. {nm} austpow Jul 11, 13:34

They have already announced that they will be doing a live franchise of the whole series of books. {nm} RazorHawk Jul 11, 11:34

I've hear this rumor that they want the series to be their GOT for their streaming service. {nm} CSStrowbridge Jul 11, 20:37

Non Disney? Shrek (David Harbour?), Miyazaki? {nm} islndr Jul 11, 11:30
