“<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/star-wars" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Star Wars</a>” fans blasted a new book, “Star Wars: The Secrets of the Clone Troopers,” which centers on a transgender stormtrooper named Sister, as “disgusting” and more.
“THE SECRETS OF THE CLONE TROOPERS includes a first look at Sister, a trans woman clone trooper,” a post on X from the account <a href="https://x.com/sw_holocron/status/1844029245925765550">Star Wars Holocron</a> read.
“Rex’s description of Sister in the book reads: &#8216;When one of our kind expressed her gender identity differently than her fellow troopers, she featured she’d have to hide who she truly was inside. Fortunately, her brothers in the 7th Sky Corps gave her the name Sister as a constant reminder that she belonged,'&#8221; it added.
Many <a href="https://x.com/sw_holocron/status/1844029245925765550?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1844029245925765550%7Ctwgr%5E21a5176cc3a3290695c0cdc1f2f1615a5a43f2be%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tmz.com%2F2024%2F10%2F11%2Fstar-wars-fans-angry-transgender-stormtrooper%2F">fans pointed</a> out how the introduction of “Sister” broke canon in many ways, noting that the clone troopers were vat-bred killing machines that typically weren&#8217;t even given names let alone so-called “gender identities.”
“Disgusting and lore-breaking,” one person <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2024/10/11/star-wars-fans-angry-transgender-stormtrooper/?adid=social-tmzlikeshop-ig">wrote</a>. “Disney should be ashamed of themselves.”

Another person added, “Are we really supposed to sit here and take this at face value for canon? C’mon this is some wacky nonsense.”
“She literally has the trans flag on her amor[.] The transgender flag&#8230; this is supposed to be a galaxy far away, not downtown California,” another <a href="https://x.com/Fenrirtheicewo1/status/1844097469313057229">person</a> wrote. “These people just love to kill escapism and fantasy.”
A third person <a href="https://x.com/WBS_JStrabo/status/1844069235389235619">wrote</a>, “Is anyone else wondering just how bad it can get? We keep hitting levels where I say ‘Surely this is the lowest they&#8217;ll let Star Wars go’ and they blow right past it the next day like it&#8217;s nothing.”
While a fourth person <a href="https://x.com/AI_EmeraldApple/status/1844051700145098809">suggested</a> the book couldn’t possibly be real and wrote that it has to &#8220;be a parody … there is no freaking way!”
The transgender-identifying character was first introduced in 2022 in a tie-in novel titled “Queens Hope,” which apparently went under the radar and was not noticed by many people.
Disney’s last attempt to release a story with LGBTQ themes did not work out. In June, Disney+ released the “Star Wars” series “The Acolyte,” created by showrunner Leslye Headland — who promised it would be infused with LGBTQ themes.
Two months later, Lucasfilm had opted out of making a second season for the female-centric, Sith-focused series, sources told <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/08/the-acolyte-canceled-no-season-2-star-wars-disney-plus-1236044233/">Deadline</a>. When it launched, the eight-part series scored numerous glowing headlines that helped it land a strong opening with 4.8 million views in its first day on the streamer with its first two episodes. 
However, it struggled with <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/star_wars_the_acolyte/s01/reviews">luke-warm reviews</a> and poor ratings, falling out of the top 10 by the third week, the outlet noted. The series remained there until the finale, when it finally cracked into the 10th spot, with 335 million minutes, something that is believed to be the lowest ever for a “Star Wars” series finale, the outlet noted.
