It's co-lead. The other lead will be a woman of color. I posted this awhile back. Here's a link.

A new casting call alleged to have been issued by the crew of the planned Disney Plus Obi-Wan Kenobi series has revealed that the series is looking to focus on diversity in its casting, with a ‘BIPOC’ female co-lead and a ‘Latinx’ actor among the identities specifically sought to join the cast alongside series lead Ewan McGregor.

Regardless of race, creed or gender, the focus on casting any project should always boil down to choosing the best fit for the character in question, but Star Wars is nowhere near as heavily populated by white guys as it used to be anyway
Hey guys, we are going to solve a problem that doesn’t exist by pretending it exists and then virtue signal so everybody knows how unnecessarily woke we are.

The series lead is a white male.
The female lead is not the series lead.
The female lead of Pulp Fiction was Uma Thurman. . .who was in the film for 20 minutes.
Female lead is not the same as series lead.

I mean I guess. I don't know if co-lead means secondary to the lead or equal. Sounds like its meant to be equal.

This wasn't an announcement, though.
Just "inside info" leaked by a dubious source.
Story is anti-SJW porn.
that's cool, but my point to both the wokies and the red pillers is the same, if its good writing and well done story. no one cares, there have long been strong women in Star Wars and other SciFi/Fantasy movies/stories etc

Please let Filoni lead the Ahsoka project. We don't want one of our favorite characters simply becoming a mascot for feminism. Let her continue to be the character that the fans know and love.

Now that everyone has thrown an appropriate tizzy on this.
So.
One website, that is notorious for being overtly clickbait, says something and everyone takes it as the Gospel truth?
My God. Imagine the good these people could have done if they posted wear a mask and socially distance back in May.

John Boyega's character - no thanks
John Boyega’s character Finn was horribly done, no matter what race he was. And thats on the writers.

What can we expect, with the fall of the Empire Stormtrooper numbers are dwindling significantly.

This could be a completely made up story. However it's not hard to believe considering KK and other studio execs have literally said they're pushing this BS. With a character like Ahsoka I don't care if she's played by a POC because her story is fantastic. If some POC/feminist appreciates her character it doesn't bother me. It's really clear when a TV/Movie character is agenda driven or is story driven. For example no one gave a damn that Ripley in Alien(s) was a female character. Her story was great and believable...Rey on the other hand.....not so much.

I do not care as long as it is a good story.
They won’t be good.
They’re not trying to tell a story. They’re pursuing a political goal.
The end result will be heavy handed messages and bad movies.
