I'll just give you a warning.

[Kelly] Does John Boyega have a British accent?

(laughing)

Yeah, I do.

[Kelly] Why did John Boyega have American accent?

It didn't suit my accent when I went in to go and do it.

It just didn't work out.

I went to read for it and it was a horrible first audition.

I can't lie, yeah.

But, when I did it with the American accent, it just worked.

It was better. And here you are.

Yeah.

Like, she's super strong and he's like so weak.

You kicked his ass, that's how Rey beat Kylo Ren.

Everyone has the Force.

Even Hux.

Oh, you're gonna have to wait for Rey.

That's a spoiler (mumbles)

I'm waiting.

Why Luke Skywalker is the most powerful Jedi?

Why?

Probably the process of elimination.

He chose Ben Solo as the Chosen One

and he turned out to be tragically wrong.

A lotta guilt, I think.

Why Luke Skywalker is a badass?

(laughing)

Kids, don't use these phrases at home.

Maybe you think that, but I don't think he thinks that

of himself.

Why does Luke Skywalker's lightsaber change

from blue to green?

Well, blue is the one that Obi-Wan gave me

and I lost that one in an unfortunate amputation incident.

[Kelly] Was Finn a clone?

Very good question.

No, he isn't.

The stormtroopers are not clone troopers any more

they're stormtroopers now, alright?

They're the normal ones, so they're recruited as children.

They're taken as babies and then brainwashed.

[Kelly] Was Finn died in Star Wars?

In terms of that vocabulary.

(laughing)

In terms of the grammar of the er.

No.

Unless I've really just been hanging around

doing a press tour for no reason.

(laughing)

Just all for fun.

He's here for the free swag.

Yeah, I'm just here for the free swag, to be honest.

[Kelly] Was Finn Star Wars Grey's Anatomy?

(laughing)

What?

(laughing)

I think maybe they're asking were you ever on an episode

of Grey's Anatomy?

No.

I like Grey's Anatomy though,

so maybe I should just say yes.

Yes.

Hey Shonda, erm, yes?

Yes.

[Kelly] Who was Finn's father Star Wars?

Whoever he was he was a bad parent.

I mean, they must have got through him to take me away

and put me in the First Order and all that kind of stuff.

Sad.

Was Finn, spelled wrong, a Jedi?

Could he be a Jedi?

Ooh!

[Daisy] Is General Hux Luke's son?

This was a thing.

When they announced the film

they didn't say what part I was playing,

a lot of people were coming up to me

thinking that I was playing Luke's son.

Why was that?

So I think that got mixed in

'cause I look a little bit like Mark, I think.

You don't.

I don't?

No.

More like Cate Blanchett.

(laughing)

[Daisy] Is General Hux Force sensitive?

This is what we were just talking about,

I thought that, no.

I didn't think that he was able to be.

But if he can be.

Everyone has that ability.

It's just some people are more in it than others, right?

Okay.

Well then I would say that yes.

[Both] Is General Hux a Sith Lord?

No.

[Daisy] Is General Hux a clone?

I do think it's hilarious that they've worked so hard

to create these new characters

and then they're like, they must've come from before.

Yeah, yeah, people want them to be linked to other.

He's a separate person.

Yeah, I think so.

Is General Hux still alive?

Uh.

[Daisy] What is General Hux's first name?

Armitage, I know that.

[Daisy] Really?

Yes, somebody told me.

An interviewer told me that they had announced it

in one of the books.

Oh, in the novel is it that stuff?

Surely somebody should be telling me that stuff.

I know.

[Mark] Does Laura Dern have siblings?

Laura Dern does not.

You're an only child?

I am.

[Mark] Did Laura Dern won an Oscar?

No, have not won an oscar.

Have you been nominated?

I have.

[Mark] For Rambling Rose and Wild. Oh my gosh.

Who does Laura Dern play in Jurassic Park?

I play Dr. Ellie Sattler.

[Mark] Okay there you are.

A paleobotanist.

[Mark] Does Laura Dern play the flute?

I said that I played the flute on the Ellen Show.

What happened?

It was all a ruse to give away free gifts at Christmas

for her audience.

Where did Laura Dern go to school?

In Los Angeles.

It shall remain nameless?

Yeah, I think it's fine.

The school that must not be named.

[Both] Who does Laura Dern play in Star Wars?

Finally one even I know.

But, you answer it.

Well, maybe you should,

because you know what we're allowed to say more than me.

First of all Admiral Holdo,

where they come up with these names,

and then when I first saw her I thought oh my God,

she's got Dame Edna's hair.

(laughing)

[John] Okay, who is Kelly Marie Tran?

I am me.

Next.

How old is Kelly Marie Tran?

I am 28.

Well, yeah!

Yeah.

[John] Who is Kelly Marie Tran Star Wars?

I don't think they like to Google complete sentences.

Okay, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

But I think they were just curious

as to what you meant to this franchise.

Okay, great.

Which is a lot.

Is Kelly Marie Tran real?

No.

I'll check.

(laughing)

Yep.

[John] Is Kelly Vietnamese?

Yes, I am.

(speaks in Vietnamese)

Oh, nice.

That's what I'm talking about.

Who is Rose Tico?

This is so crazy.

She is a maintenance worker

who's used to being in the background

in terms of the resistance.

She's usually not in the forefront at all.

And then she meets Finn for the first time.

And then her life gets drastically more interesting.

Actually true, very true.

(laughing)

Oh that was fun.

That was fun.
