It means they could have easily cast Darren Criss as Gaston to increase box office. It would have been a disaster. OK, you're not comparing her to Caron or Hepburn -- but you brought them up and others will. I was just saying that some didn't grown up with Caron or Hepburn may not care. One thing I just read online is that Hudgens's father is of Irish-Native American descent and her mother is of Filipino-Chinese-Hispanic descent. So there is some diversity casting going on here which makes it interesting.
