Not really - they get about 5 percent of the roles in Hollywood, while representing about 5 percent of the US population.That's the thing, we don't even get the 5% http://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-hawaii-five-0-asian-actors-20170708-story.html http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/la-et-st-asians-on-television-study-20170913-story.html http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-vargasyang-diversity-hollywood-oscars-20150220-28-story.html http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-asian-american-representation-nbcuniversal-20161101-story.html http://www.latimes.com/94600568-132.html http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-racial-erasure-essay-20160418-story.html http://articles.latimes.com/2013/oct/30/entertainment/la-et-mn-race-and-movies-20131030 http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-latinos-in-hollywood-20160227-story.html https://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/02/opinion/the-lack-of-asians-in-hollywood-and-on-broadway.html https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/23/opinion/why-wont-hollywood-cast-asian-actors.html I'll give you a simple example.

The representation numbers are no where near accurate compared to the Ethnic composition of the US citizenry. At this rate, we should probably be asking to implement "Affirmative Action" onto Hollywood & Broadway. --- Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico' ...

Goku may not be human but sayians clearly look Japanese. just like Superman seems to look white. and he passes for white. people who know Clark Kent in life but don't know he's superman, think he's a white man.

What I don't get is if they didn't want to put in the effort of coloring the actress's skin orange, why didn't they replace Starfire with Bumblebee and cast her in that role? Why not do something that makes sense rather than go down this shit PR road that's obviously going cause the show to be a massive failure?

This is a prime example of DC not knowing how to do shit, lets swing on over to the MCU and look at the character Gamora, she is a green skin alien woman yet no one gives one fuck that the actress is black cause in character she is GREEN.
Now back over to Starfire in the DC live action show, she is not orange, looks like a street hooker, and does not even remotely resemble the character. Another character to look at would be Mantis and OMG she's also an MCU character yet looks like she is suppose to.

Don't hate me but lets all try to imagine if Marvel decided to just skip all the world building and character arcs, instead of a good plan after Iron-Man 1 they just did an Avengers movie and then followed up with Captain America, then went straight to Civil War or Avengers 3.
No intro to Thor, GOTG, Ant-Man, Dr. Strange, or Black Panther(depending on how they went with it). Imagine how little of a shit people would give and how so many would be confused and asking "who the hell are these characters. Sit back and really think about that, now look at the "Worlds of DC" and how they are lucky Superman, Batman, The Flash and Wonder Woman are very well known. --- doa-plus.com - We Press Forward. . .
