Star Wars Battlefront II’s Iden Versio Actor Responds to Criticisms About Her Face

Update:

Additional tweets from Luzarius confirm that he was indeed making negative criticisms. I’ve added them to the piece below.

Original story:

While many would agree that Janina Gavankar has proven herself to be a capable actor with a suitably intimidating look and presence — both during the EA E3 conference and in the various single-player trailers and coverage we’ve seen — others seem displeased about her portrayal of Star Wars Battlefront II‘s main character, Iden Versio.

@luzariuslive on Twitter has voiced his disapproval of Gavankar’s character, focusing his criticism on her face. He wants to be able to change it.

Unfortunately for Luzarius, there isn’t going to be any tweaking of Iden’s character model. Gavankar herself responded with this tweet:

What do you think of Iden Versio? There’s a lot of pressure on her as a Star Wars hero, and so it’s expected that Gavankar’s performance and appearance would be heavily scrutinized. With that said, let’s try and be nice about it!

In other Star Wars Battlefront news, the single-player campaign is to last 5-7 hours, a Nintendo Switch version of the game might happen, and new Battlefront II PS4 bundles have been announced

Star Wars Battlefront II is set to launch November 17 on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

Too bad, for this moron. She is gorgeous, and how often do you get an incredibly good looking woman that’s into Star Wars and willing to play a lead roll like this?

Get your negative comments out of here and head back to your moms basement. This is so ridiculous. He’s terrified of beautiful and empowering women.

Man, what the fuck with him? She is hot, and Iden too. Meybe he did play on low settings? SHe is epic. He has 0 taste in women. Probably he will say that Sarah Kerrigan isn’t hot or hero too.
