Like a lot of comic movie-based actor announcements, already outrage online due to the actor being white and people assuming or wanting someone else instead.

Part of it is due more to the recent "whitewashing" Oscars outrage and Marvel not doing themselves any favors by interviewing a bunch of Asian-American actors making it seem like the character was going to played by an Asian actor.

Also doesn't help that there is a really old stereotype when it comes to white people playing martial arts characters.
