Rebel Wilson‘Criticising the idea of determining casting based on sexual orientation… and saying that straight actors should be allowed to play gay characters and vice versa.
The actress spoke on BBC Radio 4. “Desert Island Discs” — a talk show that features music that celebrity guests find personally significant — when Rebel’s sexuality came up.
The funny woman reflected on jokes she’s told in the past, and said she thinks she gets away with it because she’s gay – which she seems to agree with, because she then goes on to mention actors who only play characters that fit their own sexuality … which she strongly condemns.
“I think it’s tough. It’s like ‘only straight actors can play straight roles and only gay actors can play gay roles’, which I think is total bullshit,” says RW.
Rebel said he believes people should play whatever role they like… basically the best person should get the job, in his opinion.
