While we got a first look at Laura Dern’s Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo in Vanity Fair earlier this year, her character was absent from the recent trailer.
To remedy that, Dern shared a new photo of herself as Amilyn Holdo ahead of her appearance on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” this week. In this image, violet-haired Holdo is surrounded by Resistance soldiers and a BB-8 unit.
Dern didn’t share many secrets about her character with Ellen, but she did express her excitement about being part of the film.
