So few Asians over any other race in Hollywood. Like they had a caucasian actor to play the lead in 21 for example instead of an Asian. Does the audience really dislike Asians that much that they don't even want to see them?

I mean there are a lot of Asian actors out there or those who really want to be. But why aren't there many well known as the other races we see?

japanese korean thai and chinese music and animation has a huge cult following all throughout america mainly in the western states like california everyone goes crazy over every asian song and movie and everyone is now addicted to korean chinese and japanese dramas

Its because of the white man. =p

If you understand how America's mentality works, they've never been fond of anyone but Caucasians. You can find plenty of old footage of when black people weren't wanted in movies and they had black faced white people playing those parts. They did that with Asians and Hispanics and I'm sure every ethnicity at some point. Plus they don't want any minority group to become a majority in Hollywood.

So it should not be a huge surprise that there are so few Asians in Hollywood.

I don't think so, some of the actors/actress are from Asian.
If your going to search there identity Asian will prevail, but some
white people discriminate other countries that's why they are very assuming.

It is a slow process, that is certain. It is getting better recently for Asian actors, this will take some time before everyone is treated the same especially in Hollywood/TV where the market dynamics are different than Asian tastes. I hope that over the next few years that more and more diverse cultures are represented in all media, that only enriches us all.
