>half black>half italian>consistently typecasted as hispanicwhat do they mean by this?
>>217393688it means he really is just that racially ambiguous
>>217393688how do you think hispanics came to be?
>>217393688His name is fucking giancarlo
>>217393771>webay touching his chin in dramatic realization moment.webm
>>217393688>Half black, half Korean, half Hispanic, half Italian, and half white. What did they mean by this?
>>217393688Yeah, it's funny because he doesn't even speak Spanish.
>>217393688keeps him flexible from being typecast as nigga characters but then he got typecast as villains instead
>>217393688I saw him at a club once I said hispanic at the disco
>>217393688>>half black>>half italianso full black.
>>217393688Wait, he's not hispanic?
>>217393824She's made out of five halves?
>>217394076go back to school if you don't understand multiple halves
>>217393688It's funny because he's one of the few mulattos who identifies more with his non black side
>>217393688They mean everyone watched Breaking Bad and loved Gustavo, so they'll continue to cast him as varying shades of Gus.
>>217393688What makes it funny is how he can't speak Spanish to save his life, kind of like Danny Trejo. He's still a good actor, though.
>>217393909Yeah, that's a lot more than a drop.
>>217394238Sounds fine to normal people.
>>217393688Italians are honorary hispanic
>>217393771How DID they come to be, Saruman?
>>217393771Weren't those the Spanish?
>>217394270How would you know, though?
>>217394332I kidnapped a normal person and made him tell me.
He played a NYC heroin kingpin in Fresh (1996) and been doing that ever since.

Hector isn't Latino either he's Jewish
>>217394437Moron
>>217393799>His name is fucking giancarlo
>>217393688
>>217394437The actor in the OP is Giancarlo Esposito. He and Sam Jackson are both in Do The Right Thing. Did you think they were the same character?
He played a black Italian in Homicide: Life on the Street. Eat shit.
>>217393688good in a few roles but hes been completely cashing in and phoning in his post-brba rolesto the point of being one of these "oh cool its that guy" when i see him i now cringe
>>217393812>>217393771>SHAWTY WAS A WOP?>>217395829I feel the same way. He was a talented and hard-working actor since the 80s who appeared in many more movies than people generally aware of. I'm always rooting for these guys.Therefore when Esposito got his big break with BB I was happy for him. I'm not closely familiar with everything he's done since but what I've seen didn't impress me. It was busywork.
>>217393688In this world you're either white or you're not
>>217394578black movies are like one man shows to me.
>>217396273Hollywood likes people to be one race. Either you're white, or you're black, or you're Hispanic, or you're Asian, or you can be something a bit more exotic like Indian or the other type of Indian, but it has to be one thing so you can fit in a mold. If you're a mix of multiple things then they don't know where to place you or how to market you. Unless you manage to have a breakout role somehow, then you can be marketed from your name.
