Is he… you know?

[Kavish]

Would have loved to see an Indian-descent in such a big franchise but oh well.  Too much flavour I guess.

[My Tears Ricochet]

Now that would've been a perfect casting. Pedro is just so old to be Reed

[shimind]

these white directors and producers will never let a brown race to succeed. Such a shame.

Yup, the brown people are still being typecasted as either the nerds or sidekicks in big movies. 

The only recent example who did her own thing and became a lead was Priyanka Chopra in Citadel but she still hasn't been able to bag as many as big leading roles in Hollywood even after a decade, as she did in Bollywood.  
 

edit: on there is Dev Patel I guess

Ugh I love him he would have been great

[rzal]

Sad, I'm tired of this reverse ageism era in Hollywood where old people are getting all roles.

[Escape]

Aw man... He was so daddy as that sherif on Midnight Mass whew

what about Kumail Nanjiani

[Life Savers]

He would have been great casting. I still think Pedro is awfully miscast for this particular role.

[Ciel]

Oh we lost 

[ericcartman]

Obviously they wouldn't go with an Indian guy

Can he really be considered as a "leading man" in big Hollywood productions though? Idk I still only see him as this comedy actor and that's it, but maybe I'm wrong. 

[Smarticle]

Sad, ofc they went with the more bankable name

[Leptine]

Always had a crush on him
