Fans think The Mandalorian makers ignore John Boyega and release their Season 2 release date

John Boyega recently shocked the world with his impactful interview with GQ where he opened up about experiencing racial discrimination while shooting Star Wars. John also called ou the makers for lack of representation of black characters in their popular sci-fi movie franchise. He also wanted to tell Disney to not bring out a black character, market them to be much more important in the franchise than they are, and then have them pushed to the side. He ended the conversation by staying that it’s not good and he'll be open about it. He accused the top heads at Disney of racially discriminating against him on the sets of Star Wars franchise.

John’s words were being heard on social media until the Star Wars fans started spamming about The Mandalorian Season 2 release date. This made fans accuse the makers of using The Mandalorian Season 2 release date to divert attention from the allegations made by him. A fan commented, “And just like that, the John Boyega trending topic slips beneath “The Mandalorian” and googling Star Wars is a lot of Baby Yoda, Baby Yoda, Baby Yoda. Coincidence or not, they silenced him today”. 

Similarly, a number of other fans of the Pacific Rim Uprising star have been backing the star and have noticed the makers’ trick to steer away from John Boyega’s accusations. The fans have been sharing a number of posts from their respective social media accounts regarding the same.
