Yes. #ObiWanKenobi show has changed #StarWars #ANewHope #ANH slightly, it doesn't change the undergirding of ANH, it's a nuanced addition.

In the books, only a few people knew #DarthVader was #AnakinSkywalker. Some #Jedi figured it out. #Thrawn figured it out like c'mon dude.
#GrandMoffTarkin sorted it out or someone told him, I forget. Of course, the #Emperor knew that #DarthVader = #AnakinSkywalker. #AhsokaTano found out. #ObiWanKenobi discovered it was true in the show.
#Reva knew. Here's the clincher - did the babies know? Did Luke and Leia really know? Did #DarthVader know that Luke & Leia were his kids? NO! That's not going to change from the OT. Ever. That's the rule.
But a kiddie doesn't have to KNOW to not realize what's going on. Really when Anakin became a Sith, part of Sithdom is a clean slate & become/manifest the evil. That's why they meditate. So when flashbacks of Anakin ruminate, #DarthVader proves to himself that he's wrong.
Such as the manner & way of Padme's & his child (cos he thought he had one) -- gathering that's ONLY Luke -- cos somewhere in Legends they say it. And Vader tells Luke "I am your father" so Vader knows this fact. But doesn't find out about his sister til ROTJ
But, it'd be HILARIOUS TO ME that in 1 false swoop, baby Leia FUXS #DarthVader's mind up with a line Padme told to Anakin from outta nowhere.

Lemme say this: I 💗 Ms. Moses Ingram. I think she did a great job portraying her character in the way the directors, script & contract told her to do. I know she studied cos you can see it. But that material was the Cliff Notes & y'all know it.
A #StarWars fan had it accurate: Prolly, the best books she could read outside of the Old Legends Inquisitorius, which is fundamentally confusing, is -- @DrewKarpyshyn Darth Bane Trilogy -- she's more like Zannah. Pieces can always help. I think Ms. Ingram would appreciate that.
Why do that when it's not necessary -- cos...YOU SHOULD HEAR WHAT SHONDALAND AND THE BRIDGERTON ACTORS ARE SAYING & HOW THEY PUT THAT SLOW BURN EFFECT... ALL the actors read Julia Quinn's books.

Look see, we'll say criticism cos that's what fans understand. You need receipt on your critique #StarWars fans. Periodt.

You need to say, I didn't like Moses Ingram's performance as Reva cos she _____ when a Dark Side user is sposed to ______

Of course I disagree w/that
Moses Ingram was told not to study Star Wars extensively to get a flavor of what IS they kind of character she's representing. THEY told her that. They wanted authentic acting brought to the table as delivered & she did that. Quite well.
Why Disney Lucasfilm Star Wars tells their actors that? Cos of the schism. Intertwining them is...they want to steer clear. It's an art to do it. At SWAG77 we've been doing this since the Schism.

Blunt: Gina Carano knows why she was fired. She couldn't do her job. Like read the script, say the lines by acting them. That's what you're hired to do. Actors do this professionally as contracted & negotiated. You can't forget your lines. Or show up late.
fact remains there are ♾ X ♾ professional actors that will take that role & do it better according to contract.

She FAIL that process. Sorry.
Aside from #MosesIngram being a Yale graduateS-he did her job, played the role, had experience, & followed her contract, prolly showed up early cos homegirl's about to be some sorta producer eventually & wanted to learn, & most importantly KNEW HER LINES FROM THE SCRIPT #StarWars
