The timing of the deletions is provoking suspicion. Similar behavior has been observed in other high-profile Hollywood figures—such as James Gunn, Rian Johnson, and others—who scrub their social media histories when their past tweets come under scrutiny.

Additionally, it was observed that Hedlund stopped following over 700 individuals on Twitter around November, which some interpret as a strategic move while in negotiations or preparing for her new role. The coincidence of her attending the Rise of Skywalker premiere during that time further suggests she has had longstanding involvement with the franchise or its community.
