alone amazing brave encounters incredibly relationships sees starts woman
I can tell you that Rey is an incredibly brave young woman who starts off alone and encounters Finn, and they go on an amazing adventure, and she makes relationships she never could have imagined, and she sees things she never could have imagined.
Goals are ever-changing. I didn't set out to be in a 'Star Wars' film but now I've been in one.
comments girls handle looks seen wonderful
What we've seen of Rey, she looks like she can handle her stuff. So most of the comments I get are from parents who say how wonderful it is that their little girls can see this character.
I actually wanted to be a zookeeper when I was 5.
fit trying
I wasn't trying to fit into a thing... it was not like I was like, 'Right, I'm the Han; I'm the Leia; I'm the Luke.' I was just like, 'Okay, I'm Rey, just trying to do me, just trying to do this scene, trying to do the right thing,' and I think that was a huge advantage because I think if not, it would've been a very different thing.
brighter future hope people resentment time
Hope makes people good, a lot of the time. You hope for a brighter future, and resentment is outweighed.
I don't know if I can prepare for what's to come because I don't know what will.
home london love rainy
I love to come to L.A. to visit, and then I like to come to rainy old London because it's home.
felicity funny god love smaller
I love Felicity Jones. It was funny because I went to go see the 'Rogue One' set, and I was like, 'Oh my God, I love you.' And she's so tiny, and elegant, and she's just so small. Everyone's so much smaller than they seem.
liked people
I liked 'Star Wars,' but I wasn't an uberfan like many people are.
people
It's one thing for other people to see potential in you, and it's quite another for you to understand that and see it in yourself.
cool enjoy excited fans figures funny magazines people tend wonderful
It's funny because the action figures are cool, and then I enjoy the magazines because that's me. Obviously, the fans are wonderful - they're so excited - but I'm not Rey, and people tend to not be able to differentiate the two.
famous
I've never been one for crushing on famous people.
admiral influences people remember single though
The thing about 'Star Wars' is that every single person is important. Even though Rey is a big role, everyone influences everyone. If that wasn't so, why would so many people remember Admiral Ackbar?
