"I would never want to tell a story that really should be told by somebody who's lived that experience," she said. "Having said that, it's a slippery slope conversation because that means I could never play another straight character if I'm going to hold everyone to the letter of this particular law. I think it's such a gray area."
Stewart pointed out that the situation could depend on whether the community is welcoming toward the actor, and whether the actor approaches the project with a sense of connecting to it and wanting to be an ally. "I will say, Mackenzie is not somebody who identifies as a lesbian," Stewart said. "She was the only person in my mind that could have played this with me. Sometimes, artfully speaking, you're just drawn to a certain group of people."
How dumb do actors really think the general public is? We can see a bad actor no matter what the role is. We can figure out what the character is. Gay have played straight and straight have played gay and dogs and cats also live together.
Isn’t the whole point of being an actor, is the ability to play a variety of roles?
People are dying with Covid....who cares
How much more of this cancel culture bullshit are we supposed to take?
I think Darren Criss would beg to differ.
The true Slippery Slope is Hollywood giving roles to actors/actresses who can NOT act!!! Get her out of there, she is only good at holding her breath and then saying a line while looking depressed. 🤮
This is dumb.
Imagine if the roles were reversed and we never got a proper Barney Stinson....
But God forbid Scarlet Johansson play a transgendered person. Think motherfuckers, think about what they are doing and why they are doing it!

Kristen Stewart on the 'gray area' of only gay actors playing gay characters“It's a slippery slope conversation,” said Stewart, who stars in Hulu's lesbian holiday rom-com “Happiest Season.” So then, from now on, only straight actors can play straight roles ? She's ridiculous. Why is it a grey area? Homosexuals have portrayed heterosexuals since the dawn of cinema. Oh wait, over-sensitive double standards. I forgot.
