The natives and pygmies in the Tarzan movies, particularly during the early 20th century, were often portrayed by local African tribes or hired actors. Many of these roles were filled by individuals from various African ethnic groups, sometimes without proper representation or understanding of the cultures depicted. Casting decisions were influenced by the Hollywood practices of the time, which often prioritized spectacle over authenticity. This has led to ongoing discussions about cultural representation and the ethics of casting in film.
