assistantThe latest series in the universe star WarsIt evokes strong emotions among viewers and a large group of fans. star Wars I didn’t like the production some audiences feel that way Even the title criticizes the Jedi.Leslye Headland, the series’ director, in a new interview with Al Bawaba Shocker I decided to address this issue.
Let us remember that the series The Jedi are shown to not always be good and crystalline.. assistant It examines the Order’s seemingly controversial practices, such as taking Jedi candidates from their family homes.
