If you look in the trailer you see some of Usher's scenes. Including the scene where he says this is some weird s---.
CW's 100 was the same-the black guy (who plays a black stereotype Mad Dog o Riverdale) did all that promotion for that show and got tossed because audiences loves the bad azz white boy.
Never mind the book had Wells (the black guy) meet the natives and have a bigger role. Funny no calls of respect the source material came from the usual set of trolls.
