I’m really thrilled by that symmetry.” Besides, Miranda thinks the positivity and excitement around the new film far outweigh the negativity.

They both have the tail, they both have the red [hair],” the host said. “Once again, a bunch of internet racists are upset that a fictional character is being played by a Black person.
