As physical formats of Solo: A Star Wars Story hits homes around the planet, Dan Brooks over at StarWars.com chats with Enfys Nest actor Erin Kellyman.
StarWars.com: Can you take us back to how you got the part? And what was your reaction when you found out you’d play this character?
Erin Kellyman: I went to a set of three auditions for the role. The first one I thought I had completely messed up, so when I got a call I was so surprised — but also so determined, as I knew I hadn’t done my best in the first round, so I wanted prove myself in the next two. It was on the last audition where I met Alden [Ehrenreich] and we did a screen test together. I also had to be tested on how well I can fight, so I went through some stunt tests just before my audition with Alden. I gave it my all in both the stunts and the audition, so I knew if I didn’t get it that I couldn’t have done any more. But I was still so shocked when I got the role. It took a while for the news to sink in, and it wasn’t until I was actually in Pinewood and I saw some of the sets that it started to feel real.
