Apparently there's going to be a new Three Musketeers movie with a Black D'Artagnan, and the usual suspects are doing the usual howling about wokeness and ahistoricity and so on. So here's your regular reminder the The Three Musketeers was written by a Black man. Dumas' father was the son of an enslaved African woman and a French Marquis (not a pretty story there), and he rose to become a hero of the French Revolutionary Wars and a General-in-Chief in the French army.
@outeast The point is good, but I have no faith in Hollywood making a good Three Muskateers film as their scriptwriters seem to have no knowledge of history or even the original source. Personally I'm looking forward to the French adaptation due this year with Francois Civil as d'Artagnan and Eva Green as Milady.
