Warner Bros. is set to make a 7-film series based on the Arabian Nights. And screenwriter Zack Stentz (Thor, X-Men: First Class) says the time is now for people to call for the cast to be diverse and not whitewashed.

Warner Bros. is developing a 7-film series based on The Arabian Nights. I really hope they look at the great pool of Middle Eastern actors.

…actually, not just Middle Eastern. Aladdin was technically from western China! Point being, the time to call for diversity is NOW…
