End of a Polarizing Era: Woman in Charge of ‘Star Wars’ Is Officially Being Replaced

Whatever one may think of the Disney-owned era of Lucasfilm and “Star Wars,” it’s hard to deny that the House of Mouse products have been highly polarizing.

While certain projects, like the 2016 movie “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” or the first seasons of Disney Plus series “The Mandalorian” and “Andor,” have received some praise, most others have not.

Notably, the Disney trilogy of mainline “Star Wars” films (subtitled “The Force Awakens,” “The Last Jedi,” and “The Rise of Skywalker”) seemed to deeply divide the fan base.

While some fans were just happy to have “Star Wars” back, many others were less than thrilled with the direction those movies took, particularly with regard to how those films handled some of the original characters.
