    I assumed that she was Indian based on her looks.
    Me too! Floriana reminds me of Priyanka Chopra

        Yeah.I actually had to google this to see if Maggie had become another nationality/race/ethnicity in one of the 8,347 universe reboots DC has done. She's still looking very Caucasian/blonde to me.
        So, you know.people are just complaining to complain.

            I agree with you PoisonIvy346. Just because she "looks" latina people has started that useless discussion Why? That is matter of a serious introspection

                Floriana plays a lot of Latinas .She is also currently on Lethal Weapon as Martin Riggs' dead wife (and daughter of Tony Plana)who pops up in flashbacks

                  Latino is not a race or color, and Italians
                  are
                  latinos.
                  https://www.nas.org/articles/Ask_a_Scholar_What_is_the_True_Definition_of_Latino
                  "The word
                  latino
                  is a Spanish word that has entered the English language. In Spanish, it means someone belonging to the people of ancient Latium, in Italy, whose language was Latin; so the Romans of course were
                  latinos
                  . Another and related meaning of
                  latino
                  in Spanish refers to someone who belongs to the cultures of the
                  Rom
                  ance Languages, that is, those peoples whose language, and to a varying extent, whose culture, too, derive from the language and civilization of Rome, which was latin. Among these Romance languages are Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian. Therefore, all Italians, Frenchmen, Spaniards, Romanians, and Portuguese, as well as all those Latin Americans whose language is Spanish or Portuguese (an English-speaking person from Jamaica would not qualify) are
                  latinos
                  ."

                    In the U.S., they are not considered Latinos.

                      Yeah well, U.S. still uses imperial.
                      Not exactly the best track record there.
                      You're suffering from delusions of adequacy.

                        I still would not consider Floriana Latina.

                          Several different actresses of various ethnic backgrounds probably came in to read with Chyler Leigh and Floriana probably displayed the most on screen chemistry with the Alex actress and was cast in the love interest role.

                            John Wayne played Genghis Khan. I think they still owe us in spades for that one.
                            IMDB's ignore user button = priceless 🙂
