So you mentioned that I saw a big part of the conversation in relation to this being about the race of the people involved. And, you know, I only slightly jokingly went, well, look, at least it's an opportunity for a young white male actor to get a job. Right. But seriously, give us the statistics. Why is that, you know, a concern and why is that an issue?
