@pinknews: Former child star McKenna Grace is facing backlash after the controversial announcement of her latest role, [which some fans are convinced was meant for Sadie Sink. The actress, who found fame at just 6 years old on the Disney show Crash & Bernstein, has been confirmed to be joining the cast of the next instalment of the Scooby-Doo franchise. She’ll be playing queer favourite Daphne, a core member of the Mystery Incorporated gang often noted for her independence and fashion sense - as well as her famous ginger hair. However, many fans aren’t happy with the casting and have called McKenna out online, with some even going as far as to say the role should have gone to someone with naturally ginger hair. “Oh, so they’re erasing Daphne being ginger now. Great,” one fan posted. Another disappointed fan reacted to the announcement, saying “As a ginger, this kinda makes me sad that another movie with a ginger character goes to a blonde.” Other fans have voiced their desire to see other natural redheads in the role, such as Stranger Things’ Sadie Sink. #ScoobyDoo #McKennaGrace #SadieSink #Daphne

why are we attacking McKenna? last time I checked she isn't the casting director. girl is just doing her job, auditioning for roles her agent sends her.

This is such a non-issue. People color, cut and style their hair for roles all the time. Or they just use wigs. Ppl need to get over themselves.
