"That is something that I love about many of the characters in Star Wars. It's so clever that often we meet them midway through their story. That's something awesome I remember about seeing Star Wars: A New Hope for the first time, when that huge scroll of text told us where we were at in this story. That was so brave, to start a film by telling the audience all of this has already happened. Human beings are basically storytellers, that's what we inherently are—we tell stories, and Star Wars characters have this kind of storytelling weight as well. Stuff has happened to them already. That was genius, and I think you get that with Commander D'Acy."
