Fast Charlie

These cast is mostly White and male, with a few exceptions. Marcie (Brazil-born actor Morena Baccarin) is a romantic lead, but she establishes herself as a strong woman with agency who has her own ideas and dreams and can certainly take care of herself. Beggar Mercado, a powerful crime lord, is played by Black actor Gbenga Akinnagbe (of Yoruba Nigerian descent). David Chattam, who's also Black, plays a helpful nightclub bouncer who saves Charlie's life. And Black actor Lindsey G. Smith plays a sympathetic member of Charlie's gang, who looks after the ailing Stan. There are additional background characters of color. Iffy treatment of those with body differences: A character with a bald head and several scars is nicknamed "The Freak."

Many dead bodies are shown, with pools of blood, and guns are also used to threaten. One character's head is blown off with a blasting cap; there's lots of blood and gore spattered on walls and a headless body.
