Trans Mob Blasts Nintendo for Casting a Woman to Star in 'Legends of Zelda' Movie
The transgender mob pounced on gaming giant Nintendo for casting a woman instead of a trans actor as the lead in its upcoming film based on its long-time popular game, "The Legend of Zelda."
So they Hired an actual Woman versus an effeminate Mentally Ill Man with so much plastic on him you’d mistake him for a Suicide Bomber.
Not exactly a surprise why Nintendo went with the Woman. Covering up PR damaging shit actors get up to. Particularly the Trannies. Gets expensive.
So a Woman whose worst disaster might be inconvenient hot mic moment. Or putting her foot in her mouth during a marketing interview. Is probably considered cheaper than potentially needing to bail the actor of jail.
Plus Zelda is almost as big as Pokemon in major Asian Markets. They aren’t going to risk losing those markets to appeal to Mentally Ill Westerners
No!!! She is an actual woman.

I know. Accidentally posted before before I was done writing. Brain outpaced my fingers. It should be edited now to show what I meant.
I did do a search for Bo Bragason anyway.
Zelda is a woman...I know a lot of people have been confused, but the main character is actually Link. Zelda is the princess. She is the rightful ruler of Hyrule, and her legend is that she has the Triforce of Wisdom while Link has the Triforce of courage. The enemy of course has the triforce of power, and the whole series is a fight between these forces.
Possibly unpopular comment: Hunter Schafer is a talented actor. Actperson. Whatever. The series on HBO called Euphoria was a really good show, with Schafer and Zendaya, as well as some other lesser known actors. I believe that show is what launched Sydney Sweeney to her current status. In Euphoria, Schafer played a trans high school student, and casting a trans person to portray a trans character is an appropriate choice.
I'm not advocating for Schafer to be cast as Zelda, and I agree that the role of a female character should be played by a female. It's too bad that the trans community is rallying around Schafer for all the wrong reasons.
True. I am not knocking Hunter Shaffer in any way shape or form, but it shouldn't be miscast in any way. They needed a female and got her.
Word. Isn't it sad that it seems so rare for two people to find common ground on the internet these days? Haha. Keep on keepin' on, my friend!
The majority of theatre goers want nothing to do with trans. You want a trans movie, get funding, hire a trans producer and trans actors. See how much revenue you reap.
So they hired a woman to play Link?
Link will be played by Benjamin Ainsworth.
