    “What if I told you I could get you to fall in love with me…?”
    College-bound romantic Daniel Bae and Jamaica-born pragmatist Natasha Kingsley meet-and fall for each other-over one magical day amidst the fervor and flurry of New York City. Sparks immediately fly between these two strangers, who might never have met had fate not given them a little push. But will fate be enough to take these teens from star-crossed to lucky in love? With just hours left on the clock in what looks to be her last day in the U.S., Natasha is fighting against her family’s deportation as fiercely as she’s fighting her budding feelings for Daniel, who is working just as hard to convince her they are destined to be together.
    A modern-day story about finding love against all odds, “The Sun Is Also a Star” explores whether our lives are determined by fate or the random events of the universe.
    The film stars Yara Shahidi (“Grown-ish”) as Natasha and Charles Melton (“Riverdale”) as Daniel, along with John Leguizamo (“John Wick: Chapter 2”).
    Directed by Ry Russo-Young (“Before I Fall”), the film is based on the acclaimed bestseller by Everything, Everything author Nicola Yoon. The Sun Is Also a Star was #1 on the New York Times bestseller list and has received multiple accolades, including: 2016 National Book Award Finalist; Amazon’s Best Book of 2016 in YA; Amazon’s Top 20 Children’s Books of 2016 in YA; the New York Times Notable Children’s Books of 2016; and Entertainment Weekly’s 10 Best Books of 2016.
    Russo-Young directed from a screenplay by Tracy Oliver (“Girls Trip”). The film’s producers are Leslie Morgenstein and Elysa Koplovitz Dutton, who served as producers on “Everything, Everything.” Pamela Hirsch served as executive producer.
    The behind-the-scenes creative team includes director of photography Autumn Durald Arkapaw (“Teen Spirit”), production designer Wynn Thomas (“Hidden Figures”), editor Joe Landauer (“Before I Fall”), and costume designer Deirdra Elizabeth Govan (“Sorry to Bother You”). The music is by Herdís Stefánsdóttir (“The Hate U Give”).
    Warner Bros. Pictures and Metro Goldwyn Mayer Pictures present An Alloy Entertainment production, “The Sun Is Also a Star,” due in theaters nationwide May 17, 2019.
    This film has been rated PG-13 for some suggestive content and language.

    The thing that annoyed me the most about this movie is that they took away the relationships and connections they make with other people and how they're all connected in some sort of way. The lady in the beginning of the book, the lawyer and etc. Her relationship with her dad is a big deal in the book but we never saw that. They're more to it than them just falling in love and that's why I love the book so much but they never showed that in the movie.

    To all those wondering why people have a problem with the casting of this movie:
    On the surface it may seem that the people complaining are doing way too much and overly concerned with race but it’s more nuanced than that. Hollywood has a history of whitewashing characters of color that are written as black or Asian (as these characters were). Colorism, or the preference for mixed and lighter skinned people over those with darker skin is also a huge issue. The fact that in a story written about a fully Korean man and black Jamaican woman they found two actors that are half white is very telling that Hollywood still has a problem seeing people of color as attractive unless they’re mixed with white. It’s so rare to see fully Asian men and darker skinned black women in movies, let alone as romantic partners- so yes, the casting directors really dropped the ball on a great opportunity and gave us more of the same

    • @yayabankx4985
      @yayabankx4985 Před 5 lety +54

      But aren't there characters portrayed fully black and Asian in the movie sooo why does it matter that In real life their faces are slightly different so I do feel everyone is reading g to deeply into it and want the actors to be the exact replica of the book but ppl need to calm down because ur all probably going to see the movie first thing may 17 in this day and age everyone is so ready to complain about things and speak so passionately about things they don't try and change and are often guilty of when it makes you look good you speak out on it and I'm tired of ppl calling Yara light skin when she is a beautiful brown skinned girl and just because she is mixed doesn't mean she is light skin and I know kids who are light skin and have 2 BLACK parents I know a girl who is one of my bestfriends and is Porturican and black and is dark skin so ppl don't take genes I to account and putting even the half blacks down is showing that u all partake in colorist ideals too bc it goes both ways when you hate on dark skin AND when you hate on light skin I even know another Porturican who looks fully Hispanic she showed us a picture of her dad that her mom confirmed to us he was black Black like my dad but ppl will make mixed ppl feel bad and tell them their not black and make them hurt inside feeling lost between two races and we push them away we are cause of are hardships sometimes we are not always the victim and darkskin ppl are the first to have something to say about it because we won't love ourselves and we pull each other down instead of building each other up

    As dark skin women when we talk about colourism we are NOT saying that we hate light skinned actresses or that we hate light skinned people, we are saying that we hate feeling underrepresented. We are saying that we hate that our erasure within popular culture makes us feel like we are not good enough when ALL black girls are supposed to be magic. I do believe we are all black no matter if you’re dark skinned, light skinned, medium -whatever. But if that is true then surely we should be represented all shades, all body types, all hair-types. This used to be my favourite book but I’m not sure I can support this film or any other like it until YA adaptation genre changes and soon. It’s going to get left behind because all other genres are changing.

I'm not saying you are but a ton of ppl do and it's hurtful to ppl who mixed raced . Like why we have to be the blunt of anger from all races. We not black we not Spanish we not white enough so annoying.

    The headphones are pink, not grey
    The tie is red, they only changed to plaid for that shitty joke
    They talk about his poetry in the coffee shop and have a moment

Though beautiful, they already messed up the authenticity of casting, and design that was specifically stated! Ugh.

    Yes, I understand that this is an adaptation of the book and not meant to be a word for word replica. However, the reason why many people are upset that Daniel's actor is half korean is because his character is supposed to be a first gen child to korean immigrants. To change something like that is not only drastic, but also changes a lot about who his character initially is. Charles being half doesn't mean he doesn't count as 'asian' but it definitely clashes with the character of Daniel Bae.

If people wanna base it like that, you could say that Jackson, is Chinese, shouldn't be in Got7 because it's a K-pop group and he's Chinese. Now don't take this the wrong way, I love Jackson, but him being able to speak Korean allows him to be in K-pop group, right?, Just like Charles being a good actor and half Korean allows him to play Daniel and again, it doesn't matte if he's half or full blood Korean...……...sorry if this didn't make sense, sounded like It made sense in my head

  • @madisonferris8156
    @madisonferris8156 Před 5 lety +924

    The problem is Natasha is full Jamaican and Daniel is full Korean. How hard is it to find an actor who actually fits the position. All people should have representation but the context of the story is of a 100% Jamaican girl and 100% Korean boy. It is a very important factor of the story. Its important because Natasha's family is straight from Jamaica as well as Daniel's from Korea.
    Also the people who made this movie missed other really important parts of the book. The pink headphones Natasha's father got her when they got to the U.S. She chose pink because she was a kid and they were her favorite color. Its important to have that emotional attachment for the story. Daniel is supposed to have a ponytail because it is one of the things that first really attracted Natasha.
    I am so disappointed
    Edit: I'm sorry that I assumed everyone read the book. In the book Daniels parents immigrated from Korea and Natasha and her family came into the U.S from Jamaica. I did not mean to come off as saying ethnically either of them have to be 100% of anything. I really just meant thats where they came from.

      I agree, and I believe Its because its a Hollywood film. period. In the past they have cast white women to play female Asian characters: www.nytimes.com/2016/04/23/opinion/why-wont-hollywood-cast-asian-actors.html
      I don't understand it. This is 2019 and there is still struggle to have diversity in a film-with a story based on... diversity? With all the Asian male talent living right outside Hollywood in CA, makes no sense. Haven't seen it, but I heard that was discussion over Crazy Rich Asians, which sounded like plenty of stereotypes imo. As with the symbolism from the book, shows the directors were not in touch with the story (if that was significant, never read the book).

    As a dark skinned teenager, I just feel like I have no real teen icons to look up to. Like zendaya, amandla, and yara don't appeal to my dark skinned reality, they appeal to a minority of the black spectrum's reality. This constant lack of representation in society gives the idea the black skinned women are not good enough. That lighter skinned is preferred. I don't hate lighter skinned black people, I just want these celebrities to realize that they are taking away prime moments for dark skinned women to shine, for girls like me to feel like enough for anyone and anything.

    • @calebhung7141
      @calebhung7141 Před 5 lety +36

      Yeah, and true equality will never exist. If someone is good enough for the role, the industry will choose them. We don’t get to say who gets to be in what movie, because we’re not the ones directing it. If you want someone to be in a certain movie, start a film company and hire your ideal actors and actresses with hundreds and thousands of dollars.
      Stop expecting to get what you want just because you’re a minority.
      Not to mention you just got an entire film in Black Panther about your color. Are there no role models for you in there? There seems to be plenty of dark skinned males and females in there.
      The movie will never be the same as the book, and it’s all preference. Stop nitpicking two entirely different industries. Media isn’t here to promote equality, it’s here to make money.

    Why do people automatically get defensive when people talk about a very real concept known as colorism? It is an empirical fact that the lighter your skin is and the closer your features are to whiteness, the more opportunities, praise, and benefits you receive from society. There is a reason why Hollywood has a long history of white-washing its characters and replacing roles meant for non-biracial people played by biracial actors who are closer in proximity to whiteness in order to appease the mainstream masses. What really grinds my gears is how so many people deny the existence of race privilege but believe in looks privilege to some degree. They’re literally the same thing, just worded a different way with less controversial tones.

      @ibtisammohamed3583 Před 5 lety +15

      Taco Lover LOOOOOL I’m not insecure I love my skin very much and yes lightskin people do receive privileges that black people dont. It’s called white privilege , the more whiter you look the more opportunities you will receive. Even lighskin actors such as Zendeya said she realises she has more of an advantage over a darkskin girl when it comes to her acting career. Also Natasha is meant to be FULL jamacian and black therefore it would be more appropriate to hire a darkskin or black women rather than a biracial girl. Same way you don’t see biracial girls playing white roles in movies just because they are white. And no their actually aren’t that many young black actors in leading roles at movies. Hollywood keeps denying darkskin women to roles that would be suitable to them, because the more Eurocentric you are the better so they just keep hiring more biracial girls who fit into the beauty standards of society to play the roles of black women. Point proven I hope you can realise that you do receive more privileges the lighter you are. It’s sad but that’s the world so take off your rose tinted glasses and realise that injustice does exist even within black people

    • @ibtisammohamed3583
      @ibtisammohamed3583 Před 5 lety +8

      Taco Lover I’m Jamaican honey I know I got siblings that are really light. The thing is I wouldn’t have a problem if they casted a black girl who was just slightly light however casting a biracial girl when Natasha is 100% jamacian is completely wrong, you never see biracial girls playing the roles of white girls but they take the roles from black girls and it’s not even the actresses fault I understand this is a great opportunity for Yara but Hollywood keeps being colourist. And if u don’t see that lightskin or biracial people have more of a privilege than darkskin people you dumb honey. I’m not denying we have the same problems but you being lighter than me does give you a better chance in society. Can’t you see all the lighskin hype around you I barely see girls that look like me in movies with darkskin and kinky hair, like you never actually see a black girl with her natural 4c hair it’s always straightened or they wearing a weave. And if you think I’m coming for lighskim people you wrong I’m just saying a black girl should have been casted for this movie. Just like how a fully Asian man should have been casted for this movie rather than Charles. I think them constantly using biracial individuals in the Hollywood scene to play roles of black or Asian people proves that they want them to fit into the European standard of society and you can’t deny that.

    Casting is looking very bad, they just went ahead with good looking cast. When I was reading this book I personally didn't imagine their characters as they are portrayed in this trailer. BTW I'm a big fan of the book.

      I don’t think films are ever going to portray a fictional character perfectly. The author has been getting a lot of backlash for her casting. She’s like, “This is how I imagined it, couldn’t ask for anybody else,” and then everybody’s like, “No it is not-“ oof... (‘: nobody complained that Harry Potter’s eyes aren’t green.

    I'm kind of disappointed tbh, this is one of my all time favorite books and I'm a little mad with the casting and their looks (not litteraly their physical ones) just from the dialogue I heard from the trailer Charles already sounds to confident, and he isn't like this guy with a huge build, tbh I feel like they didn't even bother to cast him because they were like "oh, convenient Asian guy from Riverdale that everyone loves lets use him instead of going with the book", but I guess thats how it is it. (I just want to let people know I'm not hating on him as an actor I know he can do it and he is a great actor, I just don't think he is the one for the part)

      @@PurtiiDollx3 no we want true representation. Dont get it twisted, both of them are great actors and people, but it shows the colorism and whitewashing still in Hollywood. There are plenty or dark skinned black girls and full asian men to be cast, but they still went with a light skin girl and a half white guy.

  • @BuzzLiteBeer
    @BuzzLiteBeer Před 5 lety +339

    Asian guy and black girl. It's a start. But we're still peddling in the idea that there needs to be some degree of whiteness (Charles isn't fully Asian and Yara is hella light-skinned) for a film to be profitable or more importantly, palatable. by mainstream America.
    The two big questions are: 1. Are hapas/light-skinned people less Asian/Black than their full Asian/dark-skinned counter parts? 2. Is Hollywood still subtly racist for casting them?
    We act like one is entirely related to the other, making them mutually exclusive. I think the the answer to both questions is YES. We cannot deny someone their racial identity for being half-white or lightskinned. But by casting them in roles meant for racially unambiguous actors, Hollywood is denying all of us our humanity.
