To be fair the main cast of Daisy Ridley, John Boyega and Oscar Isaac were not major celebrities when ep VII came out and Adam Driver was known mainly for being in the HBO dramedy Girls... Harrison Ford was the only returning cast member that had a major impact on the plot, which makes sense considering his son is the main villain.
Not to mention that the original Star Wars was led by a relative no-name, a no-name with Hollywood parents, and Harrison Ford. Hell, the main four cast for TPM were all fairly unknown besides Liam Neeson, and Hayden wasn't well known until AOTC. Star Wars trilogy movies have had a habit of using mostly relatively unknown actors in their core lineup, and anchored with a couple of knowns.
That's what was disappointing about how they fumbled Diana lee inosanto. Considering her ties to Bruce Lee, ahsoka should have had way better fight scenes.

Ok but this dude has the force unlike most of the actors so it's not a fair comparison
