People tend to be okay or even supportive of it when it's a non-white playing a role that should be white and call it out as inappropriate when it's the other way around, but it is still a possible explanation. Yes, but Once is not something that does color-blind casting, and for good reason. As much as people may hate to admit it, biological children do come from the DNA of their two biological parents. So as much as I appreciate the idea behind color blind casting, nothing is more distracting then having actors who are supposted to be biologically related look nothing alike.
