This doesn't make sense. This was a biographical film. The woman cast to play her should resemble her. Zoe is a multicultural black woman, and therefore, looks different. If you were talking about just any role in an upcoming blockbuster, where black woman are rarely the lead or damsel in distress, and people were complaining about Zoe getting cast, you
may have a point. Although she is light-skinned, so people may still complain a bit.
