Keri Russell took the D23 Expo stage with director JJ Abrams to share a few details on her new character Zori Bliss in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
“She’s very cool and a little bit shady,” Russell revealed. “She’s kind of a criminal and sort of this old friend of Poe’s.”
We got a glimpse of Russell’s character in a photo spread that appeared in Vanity Fair where she was sporting a purple costume, long fin helmet, and a pair of blasters. Poe doesn’t seem the type to get involved with shady people given his penchant for doing the right thing, but perhaps this figure from his past will show us a new side to Oscar Isaac’s pilot character.
