    OK but let's be consistent and have ethnically correct actors for every role. Didn't see Jews complaining about Leonardo Di Caprio playing (((Jordan Belfort))) in the Wolf of Wall Street.
    Spoiler!

    ethnical correct casting is only needed if necessary to the role. Oppenheimer was a little bit of a weird intellectual, who looked mostly Centraleuropean- Cillian Murphy fits the bill in many aspects- he is suited for deeper, complicated characters.

    focusing only on artificialities is a low iq subhuman trait. Ashton Kutcher with beard/same hairstyle looks like Steve Jobs, but can he act like Steve Jobs, is he a good actor enough to act in this way? simple answer: nope. Also his personality is way too different- obviously.
