The film’s producer Philippa Boyens defended the decision to have the film feature Hèra as the main protagonist saying, “Everyone else dies! And before you start complaining, this is already in the text, and also the story takes place centuries before the movies.”
When the Producer is expecting complaints you know they are throwing money at this project just to destroy the IP. They are ALREADY setting up responses to criticism, which implies they anticipate and hope for it.
Also, if they wanted to make Leia the Star why not just do a show about her growing up and getting into politics? There is a legend book called Kenobi which is kind of a sci-fi western where he is watching Luke from afar and gets caught up in a fight between farmers and Tusken raiders. Has a main female character who runs the supply store for the farmers as well.

Fuck this garbage and fuck anyone named Philippa.
Obi Wan situation all over again. I read the summary of that show it it cracked me up that they attacked fans who simply wanted a show about Obi-Wan
So you saw the copy and paste of Jedi Fallen Order's plot? Because that's what the Obi-Wan show is almost scene for scene in places.
That's how lazy writers are these days, directly lifting game plots for other media just with Picard Season 1 using the plot to Mass Effect 1.

Reeee, there were no books to use as source material, remember? 🙄
