A newly-revealed star ofDisney+‘sAhsokaaddressed the futureStar Warsseries’ all-female cast and why she"didn’t even notice."

Were just all here making Star Wars.

So one day, Im like, Oh my God.

This is really amazing.

Sabine Wren, Natasha Liu Bordizzo, Ahsoka

So theres something really revolutionary to me about the fact that we didnt even need to talk about it.

Were all in this together.

Because these characters transcend gender in that way.

Bo-Katan Kryze, Katee Sackhoff

I was just very in my body.

We dont necessarily have to be inspired by somebody thats just our gender.

I wanted to be Bruce Willis when I was a little kid."
