Diego Luna, Genevieve O’Reilly, Kyle Soller, & Denise Gough (ANDOR) Roundtable Interviews
Andor is just around the corner! We participated in three roundtable interviews with Diego Luna (Cassian Andor & Executive Producer), Genevieve O’Reilly (Mon Mothma), and Kyle Soller (Syril Karn) & Denise Gough (Dedra Meero) where we got to ask them about their roles in the upcoming series. What makes Cassian so compelling? If the Rebellion is built on hope, what is the Empire built on? How does Mon Mothma’s incredible fashion inform Genevieve’s performance? All this and more on this incredible episode of Skytalkers. Thank you SO much to Disney and Lucasfilm for this opportunity!

Rogue One by Theme: Hate, Trust, & Redemption
With Andor right around the corner, Caitlin and Charlotte revisit 2016’s ROGUE ONE and talk about it through the lens of 3 different themes: Hate, Trust, and Redemption. In part one, we talk about hate, self-loathing, and righteous hatred. In part two, we talk about how trust has a domino-effect throughout the film and ultimately serves as the glue. Finally, in part three, we talk about how ROGUE ONE is a redemption story.

Essays on Carrie: Part 3 “Harvesting the Celebrity Interface”
In part 3 of our series covering the anthology “Our Blessed Rebel Queen”, we look at Andrew Kemp-Wilcox’s essay, “Harvesting the Celebrity Interface: Carrie Fisher, Virtual Performance, and Software Stars”. The essay covers the topics of digital performance, online persona, the concept of the “software celebrity”, and consumerism. We continue analyzing our relationship to Princess Leia and Carrie Fisher: How we have been consumers of her image and persona and how we have projected ourselves onto her. We talk through these topics and our own ever-changing relationship with constructed images and celebrity.
