At the Sands film festival in Scotland, Kharmel Cochrane, the casting director of an upcoming film, responded robustly to criticisms regarding adaptation fidelity. She asserted that there is no obligation to be completely accurate to the original source, pointing out, "It's just a book" and that adaptations are ultimately a form of art. Kocharne acknowledged potential backlash from English Literature fans, hinting at surprising set designs and elements, while some viewers have expressed concerns about whitewashing in casting decisions.
There was one Instagram comment that said the casting director should be shot. But just wait till you see it, and then you can decide whether you want to shoot me or not.
There's definitely going to be some English Lit fans that are not going to be happy. Wait until you see the set design, because that is even more shocking.
