What I love about Princess Leia is her unwavering commitment to the Rebellion. She doesn't need to be convinced or guilted into action like Luke and Han. She is the true hero of Episode IV. #StarWars

Outside of the original trilogy, Rogue One is my favorite Star Wars film. It is very timely.

Solo is an under-appreciated Star Wars film. I am really enjoying it!

It is a shame we only get Liam Neeson in one Star Wars film.

You can be a feminist and still believe James Bond should remain male. The “00” universe is fertile ground for creating complex female agents who support, challenge and even headline their own stories. Representation grows by expanding icons, not just replacing them.
