Not so fast. Halle is only blackish (half black) and this flick is set in Greece, is it not? A country full of dark complected white people so it would be just as much of a stretch to cast that Alician Silverstone looking chick as it would Halle.
That said, I think Karina Lombard could have pulled it off. She is exquisite, and dark. Assuming strong acting isnt a requirement.
