Remember White Chicks? It’s the Wayans Brothers movie where Shawn and Marlon go undercover as Paris Hilton-a-likes, with prosthetics and everything. It’s only got 15% on Rotten Tomatoes, and it is generally regarded as being crass, unfunny, and politically a bit dubious (but Terry Crews is in it, so it’s not all bad).
Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan are a new directing duo who, after making plenty of cool music videos, have been getting hype for their Sundance-indie-hit debut Swiss Army Man, where Paul Dano washes up on a desert island, with only Daniel Radcliffe’s corpse for company. With that buzz, they’re starting to get linked to higher-profile projects. So, with that going down, what would they love to do next? Kwan told The Hollywood Reporter:
Yeah. Um, ok. Tbh honest, he’s right, the idea of two black guys having to pose as white women does offer the potential to say a lot about race and gender. But we’ll beleive it when we see it.
