Hollywood cinema has long cast actors based on name or ability instead of country of origin. That's why it's called acting. In the 1957 war comedy, Joe Butterfly, Burgess Meredith plays a Japanese black-marketeer with eye prosthetics to make him appear more Asian looking. There are thousands of examples.

Yep, Yul Brynner as the king of Siam, John Wayne as Genghis Frickin' Khan, etc., etc.
But "progressives" mean to change the rules. Watch for such films to go the way of Confederate statues if they prevail.
