She is currently voicing the title role in Disney‘s Raya And The Last Dragon (2021) which is now in theaters and streaming on the Disney+ subscription streaming service (for an additional fee). Tran has had roles in television projects like Sorry For Your Loss (2018) and Monsterland (2020) and film projects like The Croods: The New Age (2020). Thankfully for Kelly Marie Tran and her fans, her career has continued past the Star Wars franchise. It is easy for the toxic corner of the fanbase to speak the loudest as they hide behind the anonymity of the internet, but that doesn’t mean that they are the majority. It doesn’t take more than about five minutes of online searching to find detailed accounts of what the Star Wars fanbase put Star Wars prequel trilogy actors Jake Lloyd and Ahmed Best through over the years. Sadly, this type of harassment of Star Wars cast members isn’t even something that recently began happening either. Tran is far from the only person to have been pushed to the brink by these people, with Star Wars sequel trilogy star Daisy Ridley also having erased all of her social media accounts following online harassment. While plenty of people who love Star Wars embrace what makes these films great, the path to the dark side is a slippery slope.

The toxicity of the Star Wars fanbase is a relatively small but very loud corner of the fandom. While Tran had quickly become wary of how the Star Wars fandom could be in between films, she ultimately stuck around for Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise Of Skywalker in a vastly reduced capacity with barely any dialogue. Kelly Marie Tran was treated so horribly online by internet trolls that she shuttered all of her online social media for good after months of hateful, racist, and sexist posts that were directed her way. Unfortunately, much like many of the cast members from the recent Star Wars sequel trilogy, she found herself under constant attack by cyberbullies following her appearance in the film.
