The Kennedy hate always makes me laugh. She's an executive producer, meaning she basically works to secure financing, distribution, and oversees things like budgets, schedules, deadlines, etc.. Yes, she likely has input into the hiring of writers and directors, but I doubt she's actually physically involved with any of the creative aspects like screenwriting, directing, acting, cinematography, or effects.
I still see a lot of comments on youtube saying things like "how does this woman still have a job" or "I refuse to watch anything SW related if Kennedy continues to be involved" and other dumb comments. How does she still have a job? Oh geez, I don't know. How 'bout the fact that she's been involved with some of the biggest blockbusters and franchises over the last 40+ years, which have made billions of dollars in revenue. You may not like some of the new SW films or TV shows, but they've all made tons of money and have been massive successes.
I mean, other than Star Wars, have any of these people actually looked at her filmography? Like holy s***, the woman is clearly very successful at her job, despite what a bunch of internet dorks might say.
