It may not seem like the Star Wars-y of names (yet then neither does Ben or Luke). However, Rose, as played by newcomer Kelly Marie Tran, is set to shake the grounds of the Star Wars galaxy on 14th December in The Last Jedi.

2015 presented to us the new ‘big three’ of Rey. She was played by the bright Daisy Ridley, we saw John Boyega’s Finn and the greatest astonishment of the trio, Oscar Isaac as Resistance pilot Poe Dameron, a character who was initially supposed to die.



With Episode 8 beginning instantly after the last shot of The Force Awakens, our legends proceed with their battles against the developing danger of the First Order.

In with the general mish-mash comes Tran. However, what will her part involve?

When we last saw Rey she had recently found the long-lost Jedi ace Luke Skywalker. She offered him his missing lightsaber which was lost decades back amid his amazing fight with his dad, Darth Vader.

Furthermore, Poe had driven Black Squadron to triumph as they destroyed Starkiller Base, far out in the Unknown Regions. The most harmed individual from the group is FN-2187 otherwise known as Finn who was cut up the spine by the cross-guard lightsaber of Han Solo and General Organa’s wilful son Kylo Ren.

Now let’s get back to Rose. Kelly Marie Tran, who plays the role of Rose stated her amid April’s Celebration Orlando;

“She’s part of the Resistance, and she works in maintenance. I can’t wait for you to meet her.”

So the character isn’t one of the Resistance chain of command or an individual from royalty. In fact, she is an everywoman, a maintenance group member who gets pulled to the story.

Director Rian Johnson explained further;



‘She’s not a soldier. She’s not looking to be a hero, and she gets pulled a very big way into an adventure in this movie with Finn.’

Bits of gossip have whirled for quite a while connecting Rose and Finn together for an expansive segment of the film. Meanwhile, Rey probably trains under Luke and Poe works in tandem with Leia in their battle against the armed forces of the Resistance.

The casino city of Canto Bight will obviously witness Finn and Rose sneak their way through the grandiose richness of galactic high society on unknown mission.

In any case, it seems Rose will be the most unmistakable new character in the film, alongside Oscar victor Benicio del Toro’s anonymous character and Laura Dern’s Admiral Holdo. Regardless of whether her intentions are good or bad, we should watch out.
