Second article from Vanity Fair!
Cover Story: Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the Definitive Preview
I love the look of these aliens.
(Also is that a Bothan? He looks a lot like the second version of the Bothans from Legends, only much taller and hairless.)
“[Rose’s] plotline involves a mission behind enemy lines with Boyega’s Finn.” “Rose and Finn’s adventure takes them to, among other places, another Johnson innovation: a glittering casino city called Canto Bight, ‘a Star Wars Monte Carlo–type environment’”
“A prominent officer in the Resistance named Vice Admiral [Amilyn] Holdo, played by Laura Dern.”
She looks more like some kind of socialite in the picture below, so it seems like she’ll join them on this undercover mission.
(It’s a tad weird though, I wouldn’t think that the First Order would have rich people parties like this. Or maybe they’re only indirectly tied to them. All the aliens seem kind of out of place in a First Order setting. Or is that no longer relevant at this point in the canon? I haven’t really read any newEU content from this era.)
