I'm sorry but your Simon seems to not be a tall black Russian. An easy mistake to make, really.

I'm,,, assuming they simply couldn't find a black fluent stage actor so they just cast a native guy?? but that feels like it defeats the whole point, couldn't you just,,, do a story where Simon doesn't appear on stage

I mean at least they didn't do blackface Simon, but that is the lowest possible bar to step over
