Marvel Studios Boss Kevin Feige has said he regrets whitewashing the movie Doctor Strange, which featured Tilda Swinton playing The Ancient One in the 2016 film.Speaking to Men's Health, Feige said Marvel wanted to avoid making The Ancient One a cliche of the "old, wise Asian man," so they cast Swinton in the role. This turned out to be a mistake, however, Feige said."We thought we were being so smart, and so cutting-edge," he said. "We're not going to do the cliché of the wizened, old, wise Asian man. But it was a wake-up call to say, 'Well, wait a minute, is there any other way to figure it out? Is there any other way to both not fall into the cliché and cast an Asian actor?' And the answer to that, of course, is yes."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The French publication Le Télégramme published an investigative report in early May on Ubisoft following the company's wave of accusations that surged last year. The findings suggest little has been done to "foster an inclusive and positive work environment," as CEO Yves Guillemot said in October 2020. However, Ubisoft insists the company remains committed and "major changes" have been implemented across its offices.According to Le Télégramme (via GamesIndustry.Biz), Ubisoft has attempted to make changes but it seems they have had a "minimal" impact. Executives who stepped down in the wake of allegations against them, such as Cécile Cornet, have only "just left the company." Others, like Hugues Ricour, simply changed roles. (According to his Linkedin, Ricour is the production intelligence director at Ubisoft Production Internationale in Paris.)While in Canada, a source told Le Télégramme that "nothing has changed" since Guillemot's cousin Christophe Derennes replaced Yannis Mallat as head of Ubisoft Montreal in July 2020.
