There was a furore when Bryan Cranston gave a brilliant turn as a quadriplegic (I can’t remember the name of the film) and some people were saying the role should have gone to a disabled actor.
Somebody with one arm is disabled, so would a one-armed actor have been more suited to the role just because he was disabled? Of course not.
Let’s turn it on its head. Would it be acceptable for gay people to be barred from playing straight people? Again, of course not.
