I got hooked on Morraine and Siuan from #WheelOfTime and I just want to say, Rosamund Pike's queer acting era is a gift that keeps on giving and I want the universe to give me a movie with her a Sophie Okonedo, because phew! The chemistry between those two... I need it 🙏🏾😭
I had no intention of making a thread about WoT themes and Queer representation, but this comment is really bothering me.
Hopefully, you’ll find the read interesting, even (or especially) for those not among the queer community. Spoiler-free, but it'll contain some oversharing.
The Fact that some people use the phrase "Forced Diverstity" should be prove enough of the racist tendencies of the entertainment industry. These people, whether they know it or not, have accepted it as fact that only white people belong everywhere.
Interviewer: How did you get the role?
Zoë: months of auditions
Madeleine: same
Marcus: same
Daniel: same
Jorah: same
Hammed: same
Sophie Okonedo: Rosamund Pike sent me a dozen roses, five thousand pounds, and a sonnet asking me to play her wife

Straight white cisgendered individuals calling BIPOC and LGBTQ+ people gatekeepers. 🤷🏻 Whatever point you think you are making, I guarantee you are not.
If you're a straight white guy and you're upset about all the "PC wokeness" in #TheWheelOfTime, I have one thing to say and then a lot of proof.
THIS SHOW WAS NOT MADE FOR YOU. If POC and queers can sit through decades of straight white guy media, you can handle ONE EFFING SHOW
