Random Rants: Who Ordered A Black-Washed, Body Positive April O'Neil? Another Seth Rogen DISASTER!
The trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem dropped earlier today Twitter exploded. Most people thought the art concept was fine and the voice acting sounded good, but the standout was the character of April O'Neil, who has been reimagined as a short, frumpy, tubby looking black woman instead of the taller, attractive redheaded white woman most people know. Arguments have been flying all over about if this is yet another race swap or if this character was indeed originally black. The answer is NO, April O'Neil was not originally black, not by any stretch of the imagination. *** Check out my novels: The Gumm Chronicles - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DRI7WF2 The Fortunes of Felix Fontana - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B093YZTP3H Visit my website: www.derekanderson-author.com #tmnt #apriloneil #mutantmayhem
