When casting for an adaptation, is it more important for the actors to look as close to the character as possible or their acting ability?

    The casting of that ugly mutt Zendaya as MJ is the worst thing I've ever seen. I'm not even a huge fan of MCU flicks but that casting decision is the only one that makes me irrationaly angry every time I see her hideous baboon face on the screen.

      It's funny. Hollywood has tried so hard to convince people she's attractive. She has the best teams on call to make her look as attractive as possible. Makeup, wardrobe, hair. Yet she's never anything more than a 6/10 on her best day and everyone knows it, even people who pretend to find her attractive

    What costs more money, shooting more takes with an actor that looks like the character and needs to learn how to act, or having the CGI/Make-up/costume departments fix an actor's incorrect appearance? Because they have to do both, or I'm not watching it. So pick the cheaper fix.

              What does that have to do with the answer to the question. Just means they failed in casting.

              The point is most people would prefer someone who is good looking and can't act rather than some ugly mutt who can't act.

                No, you just refuse to face facts that she's ugly and plenty of ugly people have millions of followers on social media. I mean, Trump had more than that and most of them hated him.

                which still has nothing to do with the question. The question is if the actor has looks OR talent. Your claim someone has neither is moot.

    So long as there’s an earnest attempt to capture the character’s essence. Though appearances do reflect a character’s identity so it’s also important to know what you’re going for
