Transcript
00:00What was it like stepping back into this world for season two?
00:03It was exciting. You know, this character I get to play, Saw Gerrera, I love him.
00:08He's like a rebel, a true rebel, a rebel amongst rebels.
00:12You know, so it's kind of nice to do it and to be in this world, this Star Wars universe,
00:16is one that, you know, you don't get that often the chance to be involved with.
00:20So it's great to be a part of it.
00:22I saw some fans speculating online after watching the trailer for season two
00:27that there might be a big reveal coming about your character.
00:30Is there anything you can tease?
00:32I can't say anything about it. There is a big reveal. I can say that.
00:36That's what I did.
00:38And this show is so beloved by fans. Why do you think it has resonated with fans
00:42and become such a hit in the Star Wars universe?
00:44Because I think it's this simple story about usually one person trying to make it the end
00:50and they're fighting against negativity, fighting against darkness to bring people into the light.
00:55You know, may the force be with you to empower people.
00:58I think people know that's what it means.
01:00In honor of May the 4th coming up, we're asking people what's your favorite Star Wars movie?
01:05I'm sorry, but I have to say Rogue One is my favorite.
01:08I love it. It feels very real in a way.
01:12So that's my favorite.
01:14I love it.
