Star Wars’ reluctance to recast Luke and Leia is holding the franchise back (www.gamesradar.com)

It’s time to talk about something Star Wars has been avoiding for some time: recasting its original trilogy characters. There have long been calls for the likes of Luke Skywalker to be portrayed by new actors (Sebastian Stan, anyone?) but it has, by and large, been something that the franchise hasn’t needed to properly confront – until now.

I truly despise how on point you are. I am not even bothering with Ashoka because I am not interested in watching them set up the sequels. Basically at this point all I really am looking forward to is the conclusion of Andor.
