The 31-year-old actor who is of Malaysian Iban and English ancestry was interviewed by the hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Paula Faris, Sara Haines and Sunny Hostin.

In the show, Golding discussed about issues on his racial identity which many – especially fans of “Crazy Rich Asians” book – deemed that he is not Asian enough for the role.

British-Malaysian actor @henrygolding says the controversy over his casting in #CrazyRichAsians is "a conversation that should be seen" because it shows "we want our films to tell authentic stories now." pic.twitter.com/X37pTaECOz

“There were sort of outcries of whitewashing, but, you know, I don’t have hate for that,” Golding told The View. “I think it’s definitely a conversation that should be seen because it kind of just shows the studios that we’re watching [that] we’re very aware of how we want our films to tell authentic stories.”

“The one thing that I learned very young was to own my identity. And, I knew, I’m Asian through and through. There’s nothing I needed to prove. So when that came up, I wasn’t heartbroken or just sort of shield away from it. I think the best way to fight that sort of stuff is opening a dialogue. And that’s what we did,” Golding continued.

Also starring Contance Wu and Michelle Yeoh, “Crazy Rich Asians” is a romantic comedy movie adaptation of Kevin Kwan’s novel of the same name.
