She co-founded Amblim entertainment with Spielberg and her husband in 1981, she didn’t have anything to do with star wars till force awakens.
She only worked with Lucas on the Indiana Jones films which were a coproduction between Amblim and Lucasfilm!
What I don’t like is how they are adapting some of the more novels and comics into Disney plus shows but without the og cast they are a more than a bit shit.
Like I get it you can’t use the og actors but when you brought Lucasfilm you at the very least wrote three scripts before you started filming so you knew the overarching plot rather than making it up as you went alone.
I feel like they started the relationship off with fans off on a hostile note and star wars fans were notoriously hostile before hand, who buys a company for basically one ip then doesn’t write an overarching story for that trilogy, and shuts down a highly successful gaming division.
Mistakes were made. Star wars fans can be toxic af but Disney knew this going in and should have at a bare minimum planned the films before they shot them.
