Yay thanks, you're the best

It's really interesting. Among other things, she talks about JJ and Rian and how it was with story. So Reylo is totally JJ's thing

Quote:

Q: Was Rey’s fate already planned by J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan as soon as the idea of Episode VII became official ?

DR: Here’s what I think I know. JJ wrote Episode VII, as well as drafts for VIII & IX. Then Rian Johnson arrived and wrote TLJ entirely. I believe there was some sort of general consensus on the main lines of the trilogy, but apart from that, every director writes and realizes his film in his own way. Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams met to discuss all of this, although Episode VIII is still his very own work. I believe Rian didn’t keep anything from the first draft of Episode VIII.

I can see the Tweet perfectly

Foxie · 03-08-2018, 05:42 AM

I can see it again too

All my saying is "Brace yourself, Daisy."

a new hope · 03-08-2018, 06:19 AM

I know right

Foxie · 03-08-2018, 06:23 AM

I'm really curious how she'll deal with the Reylo questions

a new hope · 03-08-2018, 06:26 AM

That's what I'm looking forward to the most

Foxie · 03-08-2018, 06:33 AM

Well, she can't say anything, but I'm still looking forward to her dodging a straight answer

But I still find it kinda ridiculous that they still have to deflect since I think that Reylo being canon is crystal clear now. Why can't they just say "Yes, we were playing it romantically."? Everybody (almost

) knows that!

a new hope · 03-08-2018, 06:34 AM

I agree, I'd love it if they just said it

Because they have no problem debunking other ships in interviews (like they did Finn/Rey) but they ALWAYS dodge Reylo

Foxie · 03-08-2018, 06:37 AM

I love that. They never said Reylo isn't real

And it's not like it means that they would end up together in Episode IX., if they admitted it was romantic in TLJ.

a new hope · 03-08-2018, 06:39 AM

Exactly, the ending can remain a secret even with them acknowledging them as a canon romance

Foxie · 03-08-2018, 06:43 AM

I was looking at the questions and some of them are unfortunately kinda rude

Can't the haters restrain themselves a bit?

a new hope · 03-09-2018, 03:58 AM

It's really pathetic how petty people can be.

Foxie · 03-09-2018, 04:47 PM

Also, the questions and aswers with her were really nice. They picked the questions for her, so she didn't have to deal with the haters. I wish the live chat was longer thought.

I made some notes

Her favourite character trait about Rey is that she is hopeful.
She thinks that Domhnall Gleeson is least like his character.
Harrison on the other hand is most like his character according to Daisy.
Both Adam and Mark are really patient and generous when working with them.
She says that Rey sees good in Kylo and doesn't think he's irredeemable.
