Fans are protesting the treatment of Kelly Marie Tran's Rose Tico in Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker, and for good reason.
“Whatever Rotten Tomatoes says, I still genuinely enjoyed that movie.”of “corrections” and “fixes” that JJ Abrams made to both. These contain major beats, like Snoke and Rey’s origins, or more minor ones I appreciated, like leaning into Finn’s Force sensitivity. But I forgot one “correction,” Rose Tico’s reduced screen time, because she was seen for such a little amount of time that I genuinely even forgot she existed, and so I left her off my list completely in my first draft.
“I think it’s really cool at all that they are even in scenes together because in ‘Jedi’ we weren’t in any scenes together,” Tran said. “It was really cool to have feminine energy on set. I wish I could tell you more but I’m really excited for people to see [Rose and Rey] interact. They both have the some objective which is to fight for the things you believe in and the people you love.”If you’ve seen the film, you know that those scenes were nowhere to be found in the movie.
It’s not like actors have never had their role reduced through editing before. But this, more so than other"fixes,” feels like a cowardly response to two years of constant abuse of Tran, the lesson being that if you hate a character, and in turn, an actor, enough, you can influence directors and writers and megacorps to cut them out of your favorite franchise.
