Rose is the first major Asian character in the franchise, and Tran recently opened up about the. If harassment is the culprit, Tran wouldn’t be the first Star Wars star to depart this way: In 2016, Daisy Ridley quit Instagram after posting about gun violence, and still hasn’t come back.

ROSE TICO ACTRESS MOVIE
In December, her Wookieepedia page-an online encyclopedia cataloguing the Star Wars universe-was trashed: her character’s name was changed to Ching Chong Wing Tong, and it described her as a “dumbass bitch.” The movie itself-one of the franchise’s most diverse-was also received poorly by many fanboys, which became somewhat of a flashpoint for talking about the fanbase more broadly. (Tran, it should be noted, is the franchise’s first woman of color in a big role, and has spoken out about the importance of representation in media.) Unsurprisingly, much of the harassment has been misogynistic and racist, focusing on Tran’s appearance and ethnicity.

The producers included footage from Carrie Fisher’s deleted scenes from The Force Awakens for The Rise of Skywalker. We adore the character, and we adore Kelly – so much so that we anchored her with our favorite person in this galaxy, General Leia. The last thing we were doing was deliberately trying to sideline Rose. Those scenes unfortunately fell out of the film.
As the process evolved, a few scenes we’d written with Rose and Leia turned out to not meet the standard of photorealism that we’d hoped for. We thought we couldn’t leave Leia at the base without any of the principals who we love, so Leia and Rose were working together. We wanted Rose to be the anchor at the rebel base who was with Leia. The actress was the first woman of color.
