In an interview with Esquire UK, Marvel actor Kumail Nanjiani complained that Hollywood is reluctant to cast "nonwhite" people as bad guys in movies.
For instance, the actor noted that he hasn’t played as many villains in movies as he has wanted to because Hollywood is reluctant "to cast nonwhite people as bad guys." Gabriel Hays is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
Nanjiani, who has been promoting his new Hulu limited series "Welcome to Chippendales," in which he plays someone who has a descent into darkness, exposed the barriers Hollywood still puts in place for minority actors who want to play those types of roles.
