CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE. HOW MUCH OF A STAR WARS FAN ARE YOU? DO YOU HAVE A FAVOURITE MOVIE OR CHARACTER?
My first memory of Star Wars, which has stayed vividly with me, is watching A New Hope [the first Star Wars film released in 1977]. To me, that was the most impactful instalment. Of course, after that, there were many other films and series filled with new stories and characters. But still, for me, A New Hope left the biggest impression.
When it comes to characters, I think it’s a little bit different. Because the Star Wars universe has given us so many different characters to love, it’s difficult for me to choose just one.
