Tiger Lily, according to the original J.M. Barrie story is a fierce Native American warrior who "staves off the altar with a hatchet." She is pointedly not an emerald-eyed, fair-skinned beauty like Rooney Mara. Hollywood already has so few roles for people of color that outrage rose quickly over this role — one that is an obvious place to add diversity — went again to a white woman. Now that the trailer has arrived and revealed just how odd it looks to have Mara playing the part, the issue has been driven home all over again.

The actress is Rooney Mara and the character Tiger Lily is from Peter Pan

Oh I don't know her unless she's an actress who's easy to miss in movies. Oh i've seen Peter but not Peter Pan since I was a kid lol. Now I know. Thanks that's all anyone needed to say ;)
