Rey’s New Jedi Order movie is already receiving criticism from specific facets of the Star Wars fandom for the most overwhelmingly absurd of reasons.

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, the director of Star Wars: New Jedi Order, has raised criticisms that she is disregarding past female workers in the Star Wars franchise.
Obaid-Chinoy's comments instead refer to her as the first woman of color to direct a Star Wars feature film, meaning the criticisms against her are entirely ridiculous as they are taken out of context.
Obaid-Chinoy's qualifications and past experience - including directing the best, most emotional episode of Marvel Studios' Ms. Marvel - make her an excellent choice to helm Star Wars: New Jedi Order.
