总觉得台湾媒体的报导有点在添柴，稍微翻译了一下詹姆斯脸书的全文。 当然还是要强调：辛蒂亚饰演的角色还没公布，目前都只是传闻。 People get upset when something they consider intrinsic to a comic book character changes when adapted for a film. I get this. There are movies I dislike because I think there's a basic misunderstanding of the story or the character when the comic is transferred to film (I still hate how in the first Batman movie the Joker was revealed as the murderer of Bruce Wayne's parents, for instance.) 当改编电影更动某些漫画人物被大家视为本质的特色时，观众总会感到非常难受。我明白 这点，有些电影之所以被我讨厌，就是因为我认为他们在将漫画转译成电影时对故事或 角色产生了某些基本误解（举例来说，我到现在还是很讨厌在第一部《蝙蝠侠》里，小 丑被揭露为杀死布鲁斯˙韦恩父母的凶手）。 That said, I do not believe a character is the color of his or her skin. When Michael B Jordan was cast as Johnny Storm I didn't understand the uproar. The primary characteristic of Johnny was not, to me, that he was white, or that he had blonde hair, but that he was a fiery, funny, big-mouthed braggart of a hero. I was happy that he was going to be played by one of the finest and most charming young actors out there. 这麽说好了，我并不相信有哪个角色的本质是他或她的肤色。当麦可˙B.乔丹获选为强尼 ˙史东的演员时，我并不明白为什麽会引起那麽大的骚动。对我来说，强尼˙史东最主要 的人格特质并不在於他是白皮肤，又或者他有着一头金发，他的主要人格特质在於：他是 个热血、搞笑、多嘴又爱自吹自擂的英雄。我很高兴他能被演艺圈最优秀、最有魅力的年 轻演员之一所扮演。 Yesterday, a rumor broke out that the character of Mary Jane was being played by a young black woman, Zendaya, and all hell broke out on the Internet (again). I tweeted that if people find themselves complaining about Mary Jane's ethnicity they have lives that are too good. (For those of you who think this means I'm confirming that Zendaya IS playing MJ, realize that although I've read the Spidey script, and I've met the actress in question, I have no idea what her role is. There's a good chance someone told me at one time or another, but, if so, I can't remember. I'm going to find out when I go into Marvel this afternoon, but I feel free to speak until that time because it's about the concept about a black woman playing Mary Jane, not the actuality or hypothesis of it.) 昨天，有谣言指出，玛莉珍将会被一位名叫辛蒂亚的黑人年轻女演员扮演，於是整个网路 （又）沸腾了起来。我在推特上说：如果有人正在抱怨玛莉珍的族裔设定，那麽这些人的 人生实在幸福过头了。（如果有人认为我的发言是在证实辛蒂亚将会扮演玛莉珍，请注意 ，虽然我已经读过《蜘蛛人：返校日》的剧本，我也和上文所提及的那位女演员见过面， 但我还真的不知道她扮演的到底是什麽角色。过去可能有人跟我提过她饰演的角色是谁， 但就算有，我也不记得了。等今天下午我去Marvel那边时就会知道了，但在那之前我都 还是可以很随兴地谈论这件事，毕竟这篇文章讨论的重点是一名黑人女性扮演玛莉珍的 争议，而非这则消息的真实性。） I got a thousand or so responses to my tweet. Most of them were positive. Some folks disagreed - they thought the character should look like what she looks like in the comics - but were thoughtful. And a handful were flat out racist. 我的推文获得了大概一千则的回应，大部分都很正面，有些人则不同意我的看法－他们认 为这名角色的外表就该和漫画里一样才对－但也都可以理解我。也有人是毫不掩饰的种族 歧视者。 I can't respond to the racists - I'm not ever going to change their minds. But for the thoughtful majority of you out there: For me, if a character's primary attribute - the thing that makes them iconic - is the color of their skin, or their hair color, frankly, that character is shallow and sucks. For me, what makes MJ MJ is her alpha female playfulness, and if the actress captures that, then she'll work. And, for the record, I think Zendaya even matches what I think of as MJ's primary physical characteristics - she's a tall, thin model - much more so than actresses have in the past. 我无法对这些种族歧视者负责，我不会试图改变他们的看法，但对於大多数懂得思考的 各位：对我来说，如果有哪个角色的主要属性－也就是让他们充满标志性的元素－是他们 的肤色、或是他们的发色，那麽老实说，这样的角色是肤浅又糟糕的。对我来说，玛莉珍 之所以是玛莉珍，是因为她那出众又充满玩心的女性气质，如果演员能捕捉到这点，那麽 她就能很好地扮演这名角色。而我也要在此表示：我认为辛蒂亚符合我心目中玛莉珍的主 要人格特质－她是一名高挑、苗条的模特儿，和过去的其他女演员们比起来更是如此。 Whatever the case, if we're going to continue to make movies based on the almost all white heroes and supporting characters from the comics of the last century, we're going to have to get used to them being more reflective of our diverse present world. Perhaps we can be open to the idea that, although someone may not initially match how we personally conceive a character, we can be - and often are - happily surprised. 不管怎样，如果我们要继续将那些大部分英雄与配角都是白人角色、创作於上个世纪的 漫画作品改编成电影，我们就得开始习惯：这些角色将会越来越能反应当代的多元世界。 或许我们可以对此抱持更加开放的态度，也许某些演员一开始并不符合某位角色在我们 心中的设想，但我们还是可以－而且经常－对其表现感到惊喜。 ---------------------------------------------------- 另外，有些人可能会认为不该为了政治正确/种族多元去牺牲原作者的构想， 但玛莉珍原创作者之一的史坦˙李（Stan Lee）今天也发言了： http://screenrant.com/spider-man-homecoming-stan-lee-zendaya-mary-jane/ If she is as good an actress as I hear she is, I think it’ll be absolutely wonderful. … The color of their skin doesn’t matter, their religion doesn’ t matter. All that matters is that this the right person for the role. 「如果这位女演员和我听到的一样优秀，我想这绝对会是很棒的安排。他们的肤色一点 也不重要，他们的宗教信仰也不是重点，重点只在於他们是不是最适合扮演这名角色的 人。」 -- Q for Quest: http://qn123456.blogspot.com/ Marvel电影世界观百科：http://marvelcue.blogspot.tw/ Marvel电影世界观百科脸书页面：https://www.facebook.com/MarvelCUE --
