Can a black guy play Billy The Kid?

[FinitoxDinamita]

Like a Mario Van Peebles
Or someone like that.

Could u see a black Billy the Kid?

[flipbjefrox]

Why not? Didn’t Marlon Brando played a Japanese guy and won an oscar. Anything is possible

[GhostofDempsey]

Would there be any real interest in a Billy the Kid movie today? They tried a black "Annie" and that flopped miserably, partly because no one gives a shyt about Annie any more.

Maybe they could get Gary Russell Jr to play the part as the real Billy the Kid stood only 5'3", 125 pounds.

[Robbie Barrett]

**** no. Make up a different movie with a black guy if it's so damn important.

[Fists_of_Fury]

Hell no! Don't soil wild west stories with woke bull****. Create a black character of their own origin. Stop blacking **** up. Get more creative.

[ShoulderRoll]

Will Smith would be perfect for the part. He'd bring some swagger to the role.

It’s not wise to change the race of a “historical” figure in a bio movie. Like imagine a white Martin Luther King. Or a bio about Bruce Lee, starring Michael B Jordan as Bruce Lee.

How much do we really know about Billy the Kid though? His origin

He is no different than King Arthur and Pocahontas imo.

[Death_Adder]

They're already SWJ'ing the shit out of everything these days so why not?

Jake from State Farm is now black
Mikey from the Life cereal is now a girl.
Jim Gordon in the new Batman movie is going to be black

Make Billy the Kid a Chinese ******.
