They’re full of it but at least when this flops, she can’t be blamed if she’s barely in it.

Oh, sis. Never doubt the delulu incel's ability to just make shit up. They'll say her lawsuit against Depp forced Wan to downplay Mera's role, and without Mera the movie just doesn't work, so it's really her fault.

I imagine they'll still blame her because she's in it at all.

lol she will absolutely be blamed

Whatever happens, they will have a narrative.

If it succeeds, it's because she's barely in it.
If it fails, it's because she has even a single moment of screen time instead of having been cut completely.
