BATMAN FANCASTING: requested by absentlyabbie

“He’s only one man. He isn’t in every patrol car, or walking every beat. It helps for other cops to see someone like me working next to them. Being a woman makes it harder. I end up with a lot to prove.”

stephanie beatriz as renee montoya/the question ii

Note: I’ve been a fan of Renee Montoya since Batman The Animated Series, but I didn’t realize how significant her character was until I looked into the comics. 

She was a queer WOC, an honest cop in a department full of corrupt white men who went on to become a costumed hero in her own right. Even after she became The Question, she regularly faced Gotham’s notorious without the benefit of a protective suit, advanced fighting skills, a scary reputation and gadgets.

A lot of fancasts I’ve seen for Renee usually go with Michelle Rodriguez, but I decided to go a different route after seeing Stephanie’s portrayal of Rosa Diaz in Brooklyn Nine Nine.

DC FANCAST:
┖ eva mendes as selina kyle/catwoman 

Eva is actually perfect casting for a couple reasons:

She’s Cuban like Selina is suppose to be in the comics.

She’s 42, Ben Affleck is 44, no creepy age gaps.

Since Selina’s post-crisis she’s-Latina reveal in the 90s there’s been two on screen adaptions of the character (Gotham, Dark Knight Rises) both have been white. It’s time to cast a Latina woman in the role since the character is suppose to be Latina. There’s an on-going history of Latinx people being whitewashed in media, or cast with light skinned Latinx actors or changing the way darker Latinx actors look to make them appear “more white” (see how Jessica Alba looks in Honey or Spy Kids vs how she looks in Sin City or Fantastic Four). 

Latinx audiences make up a good chunk of the movie-going audience, but we’re also one of the less represented groups in film statistically. Casting Eva doesn’t fix the problem, but it helps improve a lot of existing problems (whitewashing, locking out latinxs in media, casting darker latinxs in a high profile role). 

There’s also a hashtag and Twitter campaign about this for anyone interested.
