Rosario Dawson cast a Dr. Cecilia Reyes in NEW MUTANTS

And if they were looking for a recast they should have grabbed Jaina Lee Ortiz from Rosewood. At least she's actually Puerto Rican.

Have you seen Cecilia Reyes?

Someone like Gina Torres would be perfect.

Nobody they cast looks like the comic book version of Reyes tho.
Dawson is light-skinned and Braga is pretty much white.
Torres is prob the closest in looks but then she's black and Cuban not a boricua like Reyes is supposed to be.

She doesn't have to be PR. It's much more important the actress is black and brown skinned.

Well that was never the case with either Dawson or Braga being cast.

The thing is with Fox this is a clear pattern. EVERY SINGLE TIME they add a character that's Afro Latino in the comics they cast an actor that is much lighter to play the role.

Hell, even with Storm, they continually cast light skinned biracial actresses to play her. Storm was dark skinned in his original comic book appearances.
