'Gods of Egypt' Casting Creates Controversy!

The casting choices made by the producers of the upcoming film, 'Gods of Egypt' has created quite the controversy among the Desert Worm-American community.

Zorlok Jamal Johnson III, the main spokesman for the NAADW (National Association for the Advancement of Desert Worms) has been very vocal about the choice of casting, saying, "To have the ancient Desert Worms of Egypt represented by Sea Worms is not only historically inaccurate, it's a downright affront on Desert Worms with the obvious aim being to rob them of their true history and knowledge of self. The true ancient worms of Egypt were Desert Worms that looked like us! Everywhere you look, you can see the truth! The ancient art of Egypt depicts the original worms as Desert Worms and this cannot be denied! These Sea Worm supremacy conspiracies shall be brought to the light and we will not stand by peacefully waiting for justice!"

Clamato O'Connor, a Sea Worm that was cast for a part in the film, says he doesn't see the issue with the casting choices. "Look at the humans that they've cast in the film. They're of a significantly lighter hue than the original Egyptian humans and no one is making a stink about that! This is just a sci-fi, shlocky film. It's not meant to be historically accurate. Zorlok needs to relax his scales and be happy for a Worm brother. We're all the same species in the eyes of our creator, Just stop being petty."

Johnson responded to O'Connor's comments on the Alovious Sharpton Show, "You don't know a damn thing about the history of the true Egyptian Desert Worm's and it's not your place to tell me how to feel! We are not the same species! We were kings and you were our slaves and we will put you back in your lowly place among Worms!"

Peace activists have called for cooler head's to prevail stating that Zorlok is displaying reverse wormism unbecoming of a descendant of Egyptian Worm Kings.

The producer of 'Gods of Egypt' Hershelius Abraham, a Jewdishius Worm, denied our requests for any comment and is currently on location in Ireland filming his next film, 'True Mexicanos'.
