Why Aren’t British Filmmakers Casting Black Actors?

A new report from the British Film Institute, nearly 60 percent of all the movies made in the past 10 years feature zero black actors.

According to the report, 59% of British films made over the last 10 years featured no black actors in named speaking roles. In fact, just 13% of all movies had a black actor in a lead role.

In addition, U.K. has a history of casting the same black actors over the past ten years. As a result, only 15 black actors had played two or more lead roles in British films.

This news should not be that surprising. Idris Elba recently gave a speech to the U.K’s Parliament urging for filmmakers to give Black actors an opportunity in the film industry.  Elba told The Guardian: “I knew I wasn’t going to land a lead role. I knew there wasn’t enough imagination in the industry for me to be seen as a lead. In other words, if I wanted to star in a British drama like Luther, then I’d have to go to a country like America. And the other thing was, because I never saw myself on TV, I stopped watching TV. Instead I just decided to go out and become TV.”

Leaked TV Star Salaries Spark Race Controversy

0

Leaked TV star salaries illustrate Hollywood’s HUGE pay-gap.

In a new report by Variety, the salaries for Hollywood’s biggest TV actors were revealed to the public and the results are pretty surprising.

Variety, recently surveyed actors, executives, attorneys, and managers in order to get an idea of how much actors are getting paid on television. The results showed that the Big Bang Theory cast were compensated $1,000,000 per episode. Meanwhile, the cast of Empire (not including Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson)which has higher ratings than most TV shows were paid only $20,000 an episode.

The pay gap between white and non-white actors has sparked a controversy. As Newsweek pointed out, “Look at the lower-end of the totem pole and a pattern emerges: many of the actors are minorities and, oddly, many of the names have earned critical acclaim for their roles, but their pay doesn’t seem to be commensurate with their cultural impact.”

For example, Gina Rodriguez is an award winning actress. Her hit TV series Jane the Virgin is a hit and connects to the growing Hispanic demographic in the United States. However, she is only paid $60,000 an episode, which is a far cry from the cast of Modern Family who earn 400% more than Rodriguez. In fact, examining the list of actors’ salaries, non-white actors are constantly listed at the bottom.

Many fans took to Twitter to call out the TV industry’s pay-gap.

Several years ago, many actors strived to land a major motion picture deal. The rise of Netflix and hit dramas such as Breaking Bad, many actors are deciding to work on hit TV shows instead of a feature film. However, when there is a major pay-gap between white and non-white actors, it shows the transition to television still puts African Americans, Hispanics, and other non-white actors at the back of the bus.
