I mean we had a CHANCE with the Disney ones as they originally in the trailers made it look like Finn would be the Jedi and that was interesting having a Stormtrooper defect and join the Jedi.
He was turned into a joke and replaced by a Mary Sue White woman for lead very quickly in TFA.
I think part of the reason is because China REALLY don't like Blacks and they were pandering HARD to China at the time so sidelined the Black guy and Women are ALWAYS higher on the pecking order for diversity hiring even above race.
The last Black Jedi I remember was Samuel Jackson and despite limited scenes compared to others he was cool but the writing talent is so bad nowadays you DON'T want to be represented in a Star Wars film, even White guys.

If it's not a specific niche or small independent film, that'll remain true in the West for years to come.
