Peter's best friend is Filipino, his close female friend is half black (but can pass off as Latina), his crush is black and his rival is Indian. I get that the movie was trying to be racially diverse but this felt a bit too heavy handed for me, almost like they were just checking off a list. No more than the Amazons and Trevor's group of friends. This might start being a thing to the point no one notices except... |

No problem. It was an observation. |

In response to a question about that, Amy Pascal is quoted as saying that the inspiration behind the casting was reality.

I have no problem with a diverse cast.
I do have a problem with movies casting for diversity instead of talent (I'm looking at you "The Force Awakens").
As long as they do good in their respective roles, I don't really care. Political correctness and inclusion tends to get in the way of quality more often than not, though.

It's New York City, so that sounds about right. My problem with Flash wasn't that he's a minority (the actor isn't Indian, btw), but that he was kind of a dork. Same with "Michelle".
