Gina just got fired from Star Wars. Feels bad man.
Yeah well, she's been airing controversial views on a range of subjects for a while now, and come close to being given the chop previously, so this seemed pretty inevitable. Her latest musings were just the final straw. No doubt Mandalorian Series 3 will contain a line about her tragic death in the line of duty while Mando was off somewhere being busy.
Clearly this also means that Rangers of the New Republic will NOT be a Cara Dune spinoff! (If it survives at all - some reports are suggesting that it's been axed as it was intended to be a vehicle for her).

High Republic has been truly awful so far. Disney truly are completely ruining a series I like.
Been seeing a lot of very mixed reviews about these novels/comics. We'll just have to hope that The Acolyte is better (assuming the negative feedback doesn't cause it to get the chop).

I can not believe how they ended the second season. It was fantastic.
I agree, it was a great way to finish. And the post-credits scene was a nice touch, too - very unexpected!

Nice! Always love the continuity provided by casting classic actors/actresses. If all goes well, maybe everyone can finally give Hayden Christensen a break.
