"We're nice mainly because we're rich and comfortable."
Direct quote from Lady of the Lake. Clearly describes her as pale.
Now it’s our turn, thought Geralt. He was right. The officer stared at Ciri. His eyes shone through the opening in his visor, watching everything without missing a detail. Her paleness. The scar on her cheek. The blood on her sleeve and hands. The white streaks in her hair.
David Tennant seems really the universal pick here..True. Who do you think could pull off Dandelion?
Nicholas Hoult. ( he played The Beast in X-men days of future past) I could see him as Dandelion.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Btw i wouldn't mind Eva Green for Yennefer, other pick would be Carice Van Houten.
I read somewhere people were proposing Jeff Bridges as Vesemir
The other Popular pick would be Mark hammil. ( i could see it)
But i think Peter Stormare would be great too.
If Ciri is going to be black then Dany Glover or Idrids Elba should be emhyr var emreis ( depending on the chronological time...)
It would give the name Black Ones a new meaning!!!
Even though there is one who already played the role, and would be great if he could do it again... Its just a perfect fit really...

Anyway i would find this casting also interesting..

"We're nice mainly because we're rich and comfortable."
Yet there is tons of native Scandinavians who do. It is a much more prevalent feature in European native peoples then in any other people in the world. It is delusional to deny this. As it is delusional to deny that Ciri isn't described as a white person in the books and series.
And yes im aware People native of Northeast Asia its common to have light skin tones and pale skin. But let me ask you this. What are the cultural origins, inspirations, influences of the witcher series?
Not to mention he is clearly Sun tanned in that pick.

I think the witchers use some leather stuff, but that's about it.
The picture I showed is from a gathering. Most of his pictures on Google confirm to that. The one you showed is from a movie which looks tainted.
For every Scandinavian with pale white skin there are 10, maybe even 100, Asians with lighter skin. That's because of sheer numbers. I doubt there is any study that checks prevalence of pale white skin so your claim that it's much more prevalent in Europe is BS.
It's a fact that Ciri was not described as white. Most white people can not be described as having ashen white skin. Simple as that.
Cultural origins of the Witcher means jack. How an actress looks as long as its within the acceptable parameters is not dependent on her being white.

No... that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that Hong Kong or Korean actors are typically hired to play foreign roles and they don't seem to possess the cultural knowledge to act out a role of an Asian American for example, nevermind something like a contemporary Western.

You cant claim Non facts as facts. That is just your opinion, it is not a fact. Read the books. I did, she is clearly described as a white person, as well her parents. That is a fact.
You are shifting it, so that she could also be interpreted as an Asian in the books. With total disregard about the cultural slavic inspirations , and local influence in the universe of the witcher. Contrary to your opinion it does mean jack, hell in fact it is a big part of the charm of it.
Only one of those parameters is light white skin. Green eyes is also not common in North east Asia natives btw. Much less Blonde hair.How an actress looks as long as its within the acceptable parameters is not dependent on her being white

It doesn't matter where in Asia you go, no, no matter where in the WORLD you go, Ash White a hilariously, hideously, unnatural skin color that will never occur outside of the palor of utter sickness of a deathbed.
In other words. To make that look natural on a person, they're dunking her in makeup. And you're going to live with it.
Again. Ash white:

In the books she has Blonde fair hair, but sure ill bite. Green eyes are not supernatural feline eyes. And way to miss the point i was making originally.
Quite besides the point. They dont need to go to those lengths obviously.It doesn't matter where in Asia you go, no, no matter where in the WORLD you go, Ash White a hilariously, hideously, unnatural skin color that will never occur outside of the palor of utter sickness of a deathbed.

Assuming that casting call is even legit.
Making Ciri Black or (BAME) is mostly ridiculous considering the source material ( Specially with Ciri this is true) . For me as a fan is mostly an annoyance really. If i wasn't a fan i would probably not care. But i do find myself caring in this case.
I dont think there is nothing wrong in having this opinion. And there is that, deal with it.

The latest rumors are that Ciri's casting is actually taking place in Poland, looking specifically for a Polish actress for young Ciri.

Man, it's gonna be sad if people spent all this time and energy being angry and racist over nothing.
