Tutankhamen face features match easier with the ones of Nubian black race than with any other of the ancient Egypt. The topic remains still on debate specially in circles where racism is prevalent or the myth of the White supremacy is a dogma.
The specimens were living in a period stretching from the late New Kingdom to the Roman era (1388 BCE–426 CE). Complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences were obtained for 90 of the mummies and were compared with each other and with several other ancient and modern datasets. The scientists found that the ancient Egyptian individuals in their own dataset possessed highly similar mitochondrial profiles throughout the examined period. Modern Egyptians generally shared this maternal haplogroup pattern, but also carried more Sub-Saharan African clades. However, analysis of the mummies' mtDNA haplogroups found that they shared greater mitochondrial affinities with modern populations from the Near East and the Levant compared to modern Egyptians. Additionally, three of the ancient Egyptian individuals were analysed for Y-DNA, and were observed to bear paternal lineages that are common in both the Middle East and North Africa. Source

...this is not a contest of who bring more 'sources', is a straight forward analysis of archaeological and forensic evidence.

Easy to answer:
Just check the versions that Hollywood has manufactured along decades about the past of Egypt, compare them with this finding and that is all the answer you need.
Why there was no single African American actor ever called to interpret any Pharaoh role in any of those super productions?
Just think on that simple very meaningful detail.

it is not that they were just few, it was that none at all was never considered for those characters by the so called factory of dreams, well perhaps it is better to call it machine of brains wash, of a bunch of lies and probably some nightmares.

c. There little reason to think that an African American actor would have any particular insights into the role.
