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.

Dawsons creek main actor has a gofund me page for his cancer treatment he cant afford.

farscape, than sg1, and then she kinda disappeared, im guessing it was hard to find roles at her age, or she dint have any nepo connections. and then ORIGINALs was her other show.

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

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.

I was so happy that Claudia Black was in Star Wars. But unless they had something big planned for season 2, she didn’t get to do a lot. She was only in the last few episodes.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

So, like half a season then?

[–] Cyberflunk@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

Disney still pretending to be hurting from all of those subscription drop-offs.

[–] GlassHalfHopeful@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I love Claudia. Good for her.

[–] LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Me too, but I'm not so sure about Claudia Blonde.

Ah come on, a small independent studio like Disney can't possibly be expected to pay a living wage. I guess she just doesn't love the artform enough, and turns her nose up at the glorious exposure...

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Who did she play in season 1?

[–] moody@lemmings.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Claudia Black, who played Nightsister Klothow in Season 1 of Ahsoka on Disney+

Won't someone think of the investors pay.

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 0 points 3 weeks ago

I’d demand an insane salary too if they wanted me to work on that turd of a show.
