I am a lifelong Star Wars fan, who has watched the franchise I love evolve and change over time. The sale to Disney was a turning point, followed by numerous spin-offs and sequels that have left me feeling disconnected from the world I once cherished. Now, with news of Obaid-Chinoy taking the director's chair for future films, my disappointment has reached its peak.

Some of her recent and past interviews have raised concerns about her understanding and respect for the legacy of Star Wars. It's not just about making another movie; it's about carrying forward a cultural phenomenon that has touched millions around the globe.

The decision to appoint Obaid-Chinoy as director seems to be another step in a direction that many fans like myself find troubling. It feels as if our childhood memories are being disregarded in favor of commercial interests and new narratives that don't align with what made Star Wars special.

We need to make our voices heard. We need Disney to understand that we care deeply about this franchise and want its future safeguarded against decisions we believe could harm its legacy.
