The film was also mired with controversy in regards to the casting of several non-Asian actors, including Brad Pitt and Joey King, prompted accusations of whitewashing as their characters were Japanese in Kōtarō Isaka’s novel. David Inoue, Executive Director of the Japanese American Citizens League stated that while the American adaptation would have been appropriate if the setting took place in the United States, the filmmakers chose to keep the novel’s Japanese setting while keeping Japanese characters in the film’s background, strengthening charges of whitewashing.

However, they discover their missions have something in common. The David Leitch directorial would feature Brad Pitt alongside a motley of star-studded cast.
