    Good on her for standing her ground. I’m a huge fan of her work and loved seeing her in Star Wars, but nobody should work for less than their worth. She’s not an A-list star, and actors like her may have a huge following, but that doesn’t mean they’re necessarily rich beyond measure. This actually exposes a pretty serious problem in entertainment. People have families and bills, and even being a famous actor doesn’t mean you’re dripping in diamonds—despite most of the general public assuming that’s the case.

      Nobody should care if she’s not on A-tier actor list anyway. That is Disney and this is Star Wars. Not some indie movie from a small studio.

        She did a lot of voice acting roles in that interim, presumably while raising her kids.
