This is kind of a random topic, but it's something I've wondered for a while: In overseas parks (particularly the Asian ones) are certain ethnicities imported in to play respective face characters? For example does Disney employ white women to play Snow White, Aurora, Elsa etc, a black woman for Tiana, an Arabian woman for Jasmine and so on? If so, what is the casting process like for that? Do they actually hire actresses from abroad or do they look within the park's country itself for foreigners who are living there?
I was at HKDL a few weeks ago. I didn't meet any face characters but I noticed the princesses in Flights of Fantasy were for sure white, while I couldn't exactly tell the ethnicities of the princesses in Wondrous Book.
