Y'know my first thought of someone putting Hugh Jackman in for someone Japanese is them being an old school Marvel X-men fan and having a momentary brain blip of thinking of Logan and how he fit or did not fit into Japanese culture and life at stages of his history.

But then my second thought is - but do those white fans really think about how a white and western man didn't fit in? Or did they think Logan's isolation had more to do with xenophobia on the parts of the Japanese and parallell that with how Logan's treated in the West for being a mutant.

And I realize wow, they make whiteness not fitting into other cultures the fault of the people of those other cultures - as if (not unlike how they treat First Nations Peoples) the 'exotic' culture's people are meant to die off and leave this ready made set for white people to inhabit and part take of because they'd do it better anyhow.
