Why?

Sure, Rey is written as (yet another) insufferable, infallible girl boss, but I am struggling to come up with PR statements by Ridley (or even acting choices in those movies) to match.
Because people are mean and spiteful, especially around these parts.
Because people love watching celebrities die in movies.
Because she played the character that was central to, what a lot of fans considered at the time, the destruction of a beloved ip.
Because it would be fun watching her lizard face melt off from the fires of one of Doom’s weapons?

Biggest reason;

Because the Marvel Universe has ZER0 weight to it because no one dies, everyone exists infinitely in the multiverse so they are replaceable, or you can just bring them back as a different character. Having a presumably high profile character die, and stay dead, would add much needed weight. Kill what ever character Ridley plays, Captain Marvel, and a couple others, Doom using a couple infinity stones to do something diabolical, and have them killed in every iteration of the multiverse and stay dead. Kill off a few more over a couple of movies, and then have an Avengers Assemble for fighting Doom or whoever had been doing the killing.

But even better than that?

Because it would be funny.

(I am aware Black Widow died and stayed dead, until they made a prequel. However, she will return from the multiverse. Just wait and see.)

Not sure if there's a discussion about this in another thread, but a pretty impressive MCU leak, a bunch of concept art for FF and the next 2 Avengers movies.

Oh yeah she's never said anything that would suggest she's just another hate-filled cunt.

Pretty sure that will be Jocasta, not Ultron.
Okay, my bad. I just read a sentence and half of who that is and for everyone else, "Jocasta is a robot built originally as the bride of the supervillain Ultron from the brainwaves of Janet van Dyne", so I am wrong but it's still just as stupid.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it stupid. Yes they will make it stupid, but the comic story of Ultron is based on him having an Oedipus complex with Hank and Janet so Jocasta figures prominently as Ultron continues his love affair with his "mother".

Didn't Ridley just come out with a movie where she's a window cleaner who takes out a gang of eco terrorists on a building she's cleaning? Her career is going places.

No Weinstein for her to blow for the good roles.

I thought Jean was supposed to be hot. How the hell are Wolverine and Cyclops fighting over that ugly ginger?

Clive has done a lot of low budget shit no one ever hears about. Look at his filmography and be amazed at all the films you've never heard of in the past two decades.
Last stuff I remember watching him in was The Knick
