November 1 Fandom Research

 Ghost in the Shell starring Scarlett Johansson was heavily criticized by fans on the anime when they found out that the main lead character Major Motoko Kusanagi who is of Japanese origins, fans fueled wth anger at Hollywood's insensitive choice led to the visual effects team "asianizing" Scarlett Johanson, nevertheless the movie bombed while fans still complained about the tone deaf choice to asianize Scarlett Johansson and not get an asian actress.
