It's gonna happen fam.
They keep floating it precisely because they want to let people know in advance.
That's part of the retardation of these corporate idiots.
With Buffy they could have just cast a black woman and made no fuss about it. But if they did that, they couldnt milk it for all the political bs.
Or they could have made an all new character who was black.
The normal thing to do.
And there have been black secret agent films before.
THAT MAN BOLT 1973, and with a black woman, CLEOPATRA JONES 1973.
These were not low budget either. In fact, there were no secret agent films starring white women made in this time from what I can see. The closet was FATHOM with Raquel Welch. And Bond was United Artists, not a big studio.
So a black woman got a starring action movie film by the big studios before a white woman did unless someone can point out an example (Modesty Blaise was European).
