also, can we have a more "off-beat" Ruth in the aesthetics dept?

I adored Donna as Ruth. But can we please get someone who isn't so clearly pretty to play her this time? How about someone late 20s who isn't by all accounts gorgeous?

It's a great role, and it makes many references to her life lived where she is seen as as woman whose beauty is in contrast to the mainstream beauty of her sister. This is a relatable experience for tons of people, and I'd love to see an actor who exists in that world given a lead romantic role when it's specifically written for one to do!
