Sean Connery regularly plays Scottish, Irish, British and American characters.
Catherine Zeta Jones has played English, Mexican, and American characters (off the top of my head).
Hundreds of Cannuck actors regularly masquerade as Americans (j/k -- don't hit me with a snowball, guys).
Denzel Washington played an Italian prince in one of of those '90's Kenneth Branaugh Shakespeare films.
Was Checkhov played by a Russian actor in the original ST?
Was Uhura played by an African actress in the original ST?
Was Kirk played by a real actor in the orgininal ST?
My 3.7 cents,
Tanq

Just remember that Charlie Chan and Dr. No were played by round-eyes. So they're getting closer. Can't you give them some credit for trying?

As for Catherine Zeta Jones, I trust that she can be forgiven. There are, after all, precious few Welsh characters these days, and she does have to pay the rent. (Or whatever.)

You think if the owner of Mr Chau's restuarant was a vietnamese guy, he would have those goddam racial commercials on TV with the little asian guy, yelping slogans like "peeeanuts!" "cheeeeap" in a wimpy little stereotypical asian voice? And if its an asian fast food place, then how come the people in the commercials are white? I hate those commercials.
