This is Cruella in the Descendants movie.
Cruella De Vil is played by Wendy Raquel Robinson, a Black woman, and her son Carlos is played by a biracial actor with a Black parent.
But, if you search Tumblr for Descendants' Cruella, you would never know that. Because the majority of the Cruella posts that are tagged for Descendants have Emma Stone, a fully white woman and no sign of Carlos' Black half. I saw a total of one post with some lightskint FC as his father (I guess to make up for mentally recasting his mother as a white woman).
HCs and AUs abound erasing one of the sprinkle of Black women that crapshow series bothered to give a paycheck to. It don't surprise me, because the Black girls been complaining about the Descendants fandom for YEARS, but it is annoying. I thank God the kids in my life at that time never wasted their time in that antiblack media and racist fandom.

2006.
And I certainly watched the premiere. Not purposely. I just didn’t turn the channel after whatever was on before it. Girlfriends, maybe 🤔
It was a pleasant surprise.
