text: I mean, if you were an anime studio, and you had the opportunity for a live action remake, would you want some Japanese actor, or s big name actor like Scarlet Johansson? Let's be honest, 75% of the reason people watched it was because of her, she brings attention to her movies. If she was replaced by some no name white actor, maybe you have a point, but come on, it's about the movie wanting to be successful, why wouldn't you choose Scarlet to play your role?
