Egyptians does not seem to be very happy with what Netlix claims to be historically accurate.
There is a lot of buzz online among historians and Egyptians about Netflix’s upcoming historical drama about Queen Cleopatra. Criticism has poured over the trailer since it premiered just under a week ago, prompting the streaming giant to shut down the ability to leave a comment on the video, which at the time of writing has more than 300,000 dislikes against 25,000 likes.
The reason behind all this hate and controversy is that Netflix and the series creators have chosen Adele James as the actress to portray the historical ruler.
