    Tim Burton says his films don't "call" for the inclusion of people of color, which is to say that he makes fantasy films for white peoplehttps://twitter.com/Rachel_Simon/status/781487689958887424 …

    I asked Tim Burton about the lack of diversity in 'Miss Peregrine's. Here's his excuse. https://www.bustle.com/articles/186641-tim-burton-explains-why-miss-peregrines-home-for-peculiar-children-features-a-predominantly-white-cast … pic.twitter.com/nOT1umIoUl

        The "fantasy" of Burton's work is to imagine worlds without people of color, worlds which he creates *intentionally*

        If you make a film which doesn't "call for" anyone other than white people to be on screen, then that is a film *explictly* about whiteness

        @Rachel_Simon even in a fantasy he cannot manufacture stories that include people of color! Seriously!

        Isn't that the job of the casting director? otherwise why are they on the payroll? I guess they were following the book

        And that makes me sad. I watched the trailer for Rogue One & mourned the lack of POC. C'mon people!

        the lack of POC in Rogue One? You're joking, right? Honestly asking.

        To be fair, Tim Burton has spent an entire career trying to get actors as white as possible. https://twitter.com/Rachel_Simon/status/781487689958887424 …
