From what I notice from traveling overseas. It's easy to copy an American accent. Now is that because American English is easy to mimic or if it is that America outsources so much of their entertainment? Who knows but I will say American English accent is much easier to mimic.
It’s easy because they grew up consuming American content. Everytime I hear about a foreign actor, especially British, being asked about doing American accents, it’s because they watched so many American shows and movies growing up.

Best person is getting the role. They’re getting pumped out of acting schools, whereas many American actors aren’t. These dudes spend years doing theatre too, another step American actors often overlook or skip. Their dramatic chops are simply better.

Actors act. This idea you have to be from a culture to play that culture is dumb.

That's true.

U only say this cause u non ados

If it was the other way around u be singing a diff tune

And brit actors most arent that great

There are alot of underrated ados young actors

Who said I’m not ADOS?! Wtf. Context clues in my post should tell you otherwise. Along with the dap fishing posts, non-substantiated ad hominem attacks are always the resort to you weirdos. All cause I’m not diaspora warring.

Read nikka. I never said British actors are great or greater as a rule that applies to all. Nor did I say that there aren’t talented young ADOS actors. How can you be posting on a forum and not have basic reading comprehension nor be able to hold a simple discussion?

Exactly. We have the largest entertainment industry in the world. Besides the fact that that will naturally attract overseas talent, there’s also the fact British actors have more points of reference to draw from than American actors have the other way around simply because they grow up consuming American entertainment.

Now add to that the layers that black Americans set the blueprint for diaspora black people culturally (I’m not talking about the elders from whatever motherland. I’m talking about the kids that are born and grow up outside said motherlands), it becomes understandable why these brehs can blend in easier in some instances.

I see ur point we just feel ados should get some of these roles

It seem every single one goes to British

Which makes it look intentional

I mean it’s just one role that went to a foreign black. We gotta step our game up if we are to be true buffer class and oppress black Americans. We are slacking. :troll:

see the bottom post :usure:
It’s hilarious how the Coli acts like this is just an Ados thing.

nah brehs British actors have taken over Hollywood in general.

I went to see the new venom the other day and realized that like 3 or 4 British actors are in the main roles with American accents.
Tom Hardy, Stephen Graham, Naiomi Harris
