UPDATE: Christian Simpson, who performed the voice of C’ai Threnalli in LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens, says he was told the character’s name is NOT based on any kind of Beastie Boys reference, unlike Ello Asty. Bummer!
If you couldn’t make it to San Diego Comic-Con, the official Star Wars website has you covered. Check out this link, which has all the pics of the costumes on display from The Last Jedi at SDCC, as well as the text of the placards that accompany the costumes.
I’m talking about what we’ve learned from the exhibit, including the new(-ish) character, the evacuation of D’Qar, the headaches Poe’s giving his own commanders, and BB-8’s assistance to Rose and Finn in their “mission to thwart the First Order.”
As an added bonus, this episode was recorded in Imagination Park in San Anselmo, CA. Check out the video later today on either Facebook or YouTube, and you’ll get to see the statues of Yoda and Indiana Jones in the park, and the plaques commemorating San Anselmo as the birthplace of the two franchises!
