Perfect choice for Akasha.
I’m really happy for this! I remember Aaliyah
Disappointing. Akasha is from Iraq canonically and I was hoping to see some middle eastern representation for once.
Perfect!
Great casting. Some of Sheila’s stage work in the UK is exceptional.
I was hoping they’d cast an actress with a background from the areas that make up modern Mesopotamia, tbh.
It seems like when it comes to these areas in film, as well as Egypt etc, they will cast anyone but these people. As much as I love the Mummy its very much guilty of that.
