Cast as the Ancient One, Swinton was inundated with criticism earlier this yea as fans grew angry with her for accepting a role traditionally held by someone who?s Asian. And, now, Swinton is again addressing the controversially decision and emphasizing her work isn?t ?whitewashing? the Ancient One. This is the second time Swinton has defended her place in the film as she?s already said she wasn't ?asked to play an Asian character.?
