Runaways Hulu Casting
Honestly? I'm devastated. The casting of almost all the characters is almost perfect. And then I saw Gert. Gert, the first time I ever saw my body represented in the media. Gert, the clever and brave voice of reason to the team. Gert, the main backbone of the team. Gert, the member of the team to end up with the cool boy. And she was fat. She's not sturdy, or hefty. She's fat. And while this young woman is strong and empowered looking... she's not fat. I feel betrayed. To me, Gert was the only chance I ever had to see myself as a superhero. And now, it's gone.
