New WWII Film Proves Hollywood Gives ZERO F–ks About Asian Actors

Actor Zach McGowan has been cast in the lead role as Hawaiian native Ben Kanahele in the historical drama “Ni’ihau”, prompting backlash in yet another instance of whitewashing.

Filming will begin later this month at Pinewood Iskandar Malaysia Studios and McGowan will also executive produce along with Ileen Maisel of Amber Entertainment and Peter Morris of Affirmative Entertainment, according to Deadline.

Directed by Gabriel Robertson, “Ni’ihau” is based on a true story during WWII when Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service pilot Shigenori Nishikaichi crashed his Zero fighter aircraft on Ni’ihau, Hawaii’s “Forbidden Island, after taking part in the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Played by McGowan, island leader Kanahele saves Nishikaichi before finding out that he participated in the attack.

However, even though Nishikaichi was shown hospitality, he, along with the help of Japanese locals, kidnapped and terrorized the locals of the island. Nishikaichi was eventually apprehended and killed by Kanahele, who was decorated for his part in preventing a takeover.

The film is about the Ni’ihau Incident, which prompted President Franklin D. Roosevelt to issue an executive order that sent 119,803 Japanese-American men, women and children to internment camps in February 1942.

Roosevelt suspended the order in December 1944 and President Gerald Ford rescinded order 9066 in 1976.

Robertson, who also wrote the film and will make his feature directorial debut, said he has always been attracted to the story’s “huge historical significance” with a narrative that “plays out like a Shakespearean tragedy. … I see circumstance as the true antagonist of this story. These characters, once placed in this situation, were driven by their initial instincts: to help a stranger in need. Indeed, it wasn’t until circumstance forced their hands that the characters desperately turned to violence.

Ken Petrie of 27 Ten Productions, who serves as producer for the project, added that with any true story, “there is a weight to be shouldered, and the material requires the utmost care and authenticity.

However, many people took to social media to point out Hollywood’s lack of recognition for Asians yet again.
