While this is absolutely sad and I hope he's healed past this, I feel like it's also strange? No actor is ever going to play only beloved characters. Many are neutral side characters or even villains, meant to be hated. As long as the hate didn't bleed through into real life, why internalize anger that's really directed at the writers for creating such an annoyance of a character?
He got lots of hatemail directed at him, not JarJar
Well, I did say
I suppose the person I quoted misrepresented the reason the actor took it so personally. It's not "people didn't like my character," it's "a few people are assholes who can't separate fiction from reality."
