Javier Bardem has responded to the criticism over his being
Spanish and playing Cuban American actor Desi Arnaz.


The 52-year-old Oscar winner stars in the movie Being The Ricardos opposite Nicole Kidman who plays sitcom icon Lucille Ball.


'I'm an actor, and that's what I do for a living:
try to be people that I'm not,' Javier told The Hollywood Reporter in a new interview.

Javier also argued that the flak over nationality tends to be aimed in particular at non-native
English speakers like himself.

'What do we do with Marlon Brando playing Vito Corleone?
What do we do with Margaret Thatcher played by Meryl Streep?
Daniel Day-Lewis playing Lincoln? Why does this conversation happen with people with
accents?' he said.

'You have your accent. That's where you belong.
That's tricky. Where is that conversation with English-speaking people doing things like The Last
Duel, where they were supposed to be French people in the Middle Ages?
That's fine. But me, with my Spanish accent, being Cuban?'

He added defiantly: 'What I mean is, if we want to open the can of worms, let's open it for everyone.
The role came to me, and one thing that I know for
sure is that I'm going to give everything that I
have.'









Profession: 'I'm an actor, and that's what I do for a living: try

The husband of Penelope Cruz joked: 'We should all start not allowing anybody to play Hamlet
unless they were born in Denmark.'

After his interview he emailed the publication and qualified his earlier remarks: 'I do recognize that there are many underrepresented voices and stories that
need to be told, and we should collectively do better to provide access and opportunities for more American Latino stories and storytellers.' 

As Javier was slated for playing a Latino despite not being
one, Rachel Zegler has received opprobrium for supposedly being the wrong type of Latina to play Maria in West Side Story as
she is of Colombian and Polish descent rather than Puerto Rican.

Javier and Nicole were both controversial choices for their roles when they were cast as Lucy and Desi, whose daughter Lucie Arnaz publicly defended Nicole.

The blowback they received was so intense that they both apparently
tried to extricate themselves from the film as a result.


Although the producer Todd Black was able to persuade
their agents to keep them in, Nicole and Javier
still wanted the film postponed a year.

Nicole said that once their attempts to finagle a delay were unsuccessful 'then it was like: "Oh, no. Oh, no. We actually have to do this."'

Since both Nicole and Javier grew up abroad they were unaware of how proprietary Americans felt
about Lucy and Desi and so were unprepared for the backlash.

Aaron himself has previously defended casting Javier in the midst of controversy about his not being Latin American.

'First of all, Amazon's casting department had a Latina casting consultant on board.
I found out, for instance, because there was an actor who I was considering who's Brazilian, and I was
told by the casting consultant that Brazilians aren't considered [Hispanic] because they speak Portuguese,' he told the Hollywood Reporter.


'So, Javier is Spanish and the casting consultant was fine with it.
But I don't want to use the casting consultant as cover.

I want to tell you my opinion on this and I stand by it, which is this: Spanish and Cuban aren't actable, OK?
They're not actable. By the way, neither are straight
and gay,' he added.

'Because I know there's a small movement underway that
only gay actors should play gay characters. Gay and straight aren't actable.
You could act being attracted to someone, but most
nouns aren't actable.' 




Film history: Javier argued: 'What do we do with Margaret Thatcher played
by Meryl Streep?' asking: 'Why does this conversation happen with people with
accents?'

Meanwhile as rumors of Nicole's casting began to spread this January it set of a swirl of online chatter about who would be better suited for the
role. 

Debra Messing, who had just starred in a homage to I Love Lucy on the last season of
Will And Grace, began aggressively pitching herself for the part on Twitter.


However Lucie posted a Facebook video urging fans to 'stop arguing about who should play it - she doesn't look like
her, her nose isn't the same, she isn't as funny.'

She noted that the film is 'the story of Lucille
Ball, my actual mother, not Lucy Ricardo, and her husband Desi Arnaz,
my dad, not Ricky Ricardo.' 




New work: 'Where is that conversation with English-speaking people doing
things like The Last Duel, where they were supposed to be French
people in the Middle Ages?' Javier asked

Desi, who played Lucy's bandleader husband Ricky Ricardo on their program,
had a tumultuous marriage to her in real life. 

She filed for divorce for the first time in 1944, reportedly over
his philandering and drinking, but they got back together before splitting up permanently
in 1960.

In the meantime they produced two children and the sitcom
that etched them into TV legend, running from 1951 to 1957.

They also starred in movies together throughout their marriage,
including Forever, Darling and the Vincente Minnelli comedy The
Long, Long Trailer. 

Despite their divorce, in which she called their marriage 'a nightmare,'
Lucy and Desi remained publicly amicable for the rest of his life.


Lucy married Borscht Belt comic Gary Morton in 1961 and stayed
with him until her death in 1989, while Desi married one
Edith Hirsch in 1963.

Edith and Desi both died of cancer one year apart - she
passed on in 1985 and her husband, who loved cigars from his native Cuba, succumbed to lung cancer in 1986. 

Aaron Sorkin's new biopic is about a single week spent making an episode of I Love Lucy during which Lucy and Desi's
marriage is shaken.

The turbulent week, reportedly running from the table read
to the taping in front of a studio audience, is
said to include a professional landmine for the couple as well.
