Did Hollywood change in 2018?

December 10, 2018

How much did Black Panther matter? How about Crazy Rich Asians? You'll hear a lot about the Year of Diversity in Hollywood this month. But that's a big load for a handful of movies to shoulder. Welcome to the biggest stories of 2018. Every day this week, we'll try to determine which stories actually changed the way we see the world this year. Today: Entertainment. And millions of theatregoers who finally saw themselves dominating the multiplex.

Two huge movies featuring non-white casts shattered the Hollywood perception of what "diverse" movies could achieve. Does that mean the needle really moved? What should we expect from blockbuster casting in 2019 and beyond? And what would true Hollywood representation look like?

GUEST: Andray Domise, writer, co-host of Black Tea on Frequency Podcast Network
