[mushroom25]

Netflix are having difficulty in casting a Prince Harry for a continuation of "The Crown" -

although, I don't see why that should necessarily be a problem. after all, an actor is an actor is an actor, playing a role. so why not take the identity conscious casting route taken by the producers of the recent Anne Boleyn series?

[bednobs]

true. its not beyond the wit of man to make someone's hair ginger either. they also cast oc as the queen and she has brown eyes

[elliemay1]

Have they never heard of dye/wigs/hairpieces?

[andy-hughes]

It's a puff piece to advertise the series.

It creates interest - as this OP proves - but it's still nonsense.

I'll volunteer if ummmm doesn't want the part.....

[Mamyalynne]

The actor will be between the ages of 6-13 years, you may struggle there.

[DTCwordfan]

Lol, both of us will - even allowing for ummmm not being more than 21 years old.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes :-)

[ummmm]

I'm not ginger or male either :-)

[Dee-M-See]

Why not get a Black Actor to play the part?

[Peter Pedant]

have they no henna dye?
I'll volunteer if ummmm doesn't want the part.....
so would I - I can do mad....

I can do wig and shake my pretty curls without the wig falling off
have I got the job?

[Mamyalynne]

You'd have to ask the producers that question.
