This was a joke, right ? Is Mel Gibson going to be cast as Nelson Mandela in the next bright idea for a hit series ? I'm sure no one would have a problem with that, right ? Nonsense. Why create a historical series without adhering to the most obvious historical facts ? Anne Boleyn was not a lady of African descent. Sorry. Anne Boleyn was a white woman of Anglo-Saxon descent. What is gained by blatantly ignoring that ? This isn't a historical series, its just fiction. Pure garbage.
