[Python] cv2.rectangle not working when using a tuple from a np array as color

I was trying to make rectangles with random colors in a script, but I came across this really weird bug where, when I use a hard-coded color everything works fine (like (255, 0, 0)), but when I try to make a random color using np.random.randint, it gives me the following error:

TypeError: function takes exactly 4 arguments (2 given)
​

This minimal code reproduces my problem.

import numpy as np
from cv2 import cv2

img = np.ones((900, 1200), dtype='uint8')
color = tuple(np.random.randint(0, 256, 3, dtype='uint8')) # Does not work
color = (127, 127, 127) # Works
cv2.rectangle(img, (100, 100), (300, 300), color, 4)
