Denzel casting wasn't woke that was casting an all time bad ass actor for a bad ass role.. casting Queen Latifah was definitely woke AF I don't care what age she is it was done to appease woke culture = woke.
Wokeness is when you cast a role with intention of social messaging over who would be great in role. Denzel is one of goats at playing a bad ass like McCall. Not even near woke just a great cast.
Like Ginacarlo would be great as Magneto and Idris would be a great Bond. Imo wokeness isn't about skin color, sex, or pronoun shit it's when you castca show or write a story with social messaging at forefront of thought.
