The announcement of Natasha Liu Bordizzo’s signing at the Star Wars Celebration was undoubtedly one of the highlights of that convention. Fans expected to see a live action version of Sabine Wren in “Ahsoka”, but there was no ‘Star Wars’ to confirm it by announcing the signature of the actress in charge of giving life to the beloved character of ‘Star Wars Rebels’. Thus Bordizzo encountered impressive galactic enthusiasm in his first appearance as a new member of the family.
After the aforementioned announcement, Bordizzo was part of a red carpet where eCartelera was present, an opportunity that he took the opportunity to share his joy at the reception he had just experienced. “After today’s screams, I think I understand [cuanto significa el personaje para los seguidores]”the actress said with a laugh, adding that so much love comes from “connection everyone feels for the ‘Rebels’ crew” and how they empathize with “everything they’ve been through “ and the courage with which they faced every challenge. Bordizzo sported a smile from ear to ear that underlines how much you appreciate the role he has chosen without having the faintest idea what was going on. He has now revealed this in statements to The Hollywood Reporter, explaining that when he took the test to join the beloved universe, I didn’t know anything about the role; and that scene from the famous movie starring Tom Cruise, ‘Top Gun. Idols of the air ‘, as a basis.
“I remember it was something very, very opaque, they didn’t give you any information. They sent me a scene from ‘Top Gun’ to do the test and I played a male pilot. Then I had to act in another scene, I I don’t remember what, but of course not. It was a scene from the series. I knew it was an almost unattainable project linked to Jon Favreauand at the time, like most actors, for my own sanity, I have sent the test and have not thought about it anymore. I went through absolute circuses with the casting where you do four rehearsals, two zooms with the director and then it’s: total silence. You never hear from anyone again. So I sent the tape and got no response for several weeks and thought, ‘Yeah, this is another one of those.’ “. Fortunately this time there was a happy ending.

In the same interview Natasha Liu Bordizzo explains that, coming from ‘Star Wars Rebels’, her character should honor what was lifted in the animation as it plots its own path. So, his approach ended up falling apart “somewhere in between”. “Obviously it’s great if you’ve seen the series, but the live action version will always be something completely new and fresh that has to find its own truth and do not try to replicate what has been created “.
“‘Rebels’ to me is almost like a book of memories. It’s a process of preparation for the role that I didn’t have to play because my character’s memory is already engraved. So I was encouraged to watch the show but, of course, I saw it because how could I not? Like this [la Sabine en acción real] live somewhere in between”.
