While the move seizure character bring to life sentence by Lupita Nyong’o only made her first appearance in 2015’sThe Force Awakens , it was immediately clear she held a significant place in the largerStar Warsstory . Not only is she on familiar terms with the role of the original trilogy , even possessing Luke ’s old lightsaber - before it was discovered by Rey - but she ’s also over 1,000 years older , meaning she ’s one of the few characters that can provide any form of penetration on the larger galactic history , and not just the Clone Wars and rise and fall of the Empire , but hundreds of years before that even - a time inStar Warshistory devotee have hardly been exposed to yet .
