A casting document from Japanese car company Acura has leaked. It explicitly states that they sought a “nice looking, friendly, not too dark” African-American to play a car dealer alongside comedian Jerry Seinfeld in the their Super Bowl commercial, which aired earlier this year.
According to TMZ, they attained [sic] a copy of the document from a “pissed” black actor who didn’t fit the profile.
