Black Twitter having a field day with the thought of Clifton Powell being cast as Professor X
- Thread starter cli-terminator
- Start date
New kind of pacifism
Right. He's a good actor with a lot of range.
But... why?
Does Patrick Stewart not want to reprise the role?
Does Patrick Stewart not want to reprise the role?
They need to simply make black heroes instead of retrofitting old white ones, to appear woke. Its all good until they make your favorite black hero gay or a white woman.
Patrick is way too old, isn't he like 90?
He is 82 years old.
Same reason they wrote Anthony Hopkins out.
They got one leg in the grave.
I dont need a Black Prof X to feel "represented".
Hope it happens...
Actually I would like this better than Clifton Powell
Thank you. I hate niggas.
A role that is well deserved but motherfuckers want their worthless social media clout, so now they ridicule him.
Then the moment they recast the role, they'll be the first motherfuckers screaming "wHy dO tHeY hATe uS"
I read that too a long time ago. Clifton Powell has also played MLK in a series called Selma. I think he’s a great actor, funny as fuck.
I actually met dude once. This could be interesting.
Ok hear me out…I think Giancarlo would make a better Magneto… Gus fring with powers
Same.
Did you see him in Dr. Strange?? I thought he was going to die right there on screen. He's way too old, plus there is no real ling term future using him.
One of my favorites
Didn't know about Selma (might check that out), but it takes serious skills to be good at both dramas and comedy.
Hope it happens...
G stay working...

I don't think people are dissing Clifton Powell with these memes and not saying he wouldn't be good, I think they just remembering him from some of their favorite movies and then picturing him being in the Professor X role. They did the same with Terrance Howard, it's just jokes people..lol
