Knowing Disney, they need to..... For diversity.

If u notice, almost...... actually I think all Disney star wars will have at least one black token, lol.

Yes I'm aware lucas era also has black token but who doesn't like lando and Samuel mthrfcking Jackson.

If their whole purpose was breaking China market, we would not have a black stormtrooper in the first place. It will make more sense to draft in some major Chinese stars like how they brought in Donnie Yen and Jiang Wen for Roque One. Like I say before, both Roque One and Force Awakens did quite well in China. If they were targeting China's market for The Last Jedi, they would have brought in more Chinese stars instead of making John Boyega's role useless. This was solely the fault of both Rian and Kennedy.
