And cause Disney isn’t even close to pushing a propaganda. Correction, they only act like they stand for diverse casting.

I think what it is is that they pretend to be diverse by having a diverse cast, but behind the scenes it’s all white men.

No, look at my other posts clarifying what I said. My point is that a truly diverse and bold move would be having a person of color as a lead in one of the movies, which they have failed to do in addition to still only hiring white men as directors.

So yes, my point does apply to both casting and the choice of people behind the camera.

I think it’s pretty obvious that Disney is hedging their bets with these Star Wars films in terms of casting. They don’t really care about diversity, they just care about their bottom line.

Though as was argued above I would say Finn is one of the two leads in TFA. His part is equally important in the film in my opinion. He gets just as much screentime as Rey in the first movie.

I agree that his character has much less impact in TLJ. I just don’t think his storyline was very well written.
