1x1 With Kristian Harloff

I’ve been hoping for a long form interview with Kelly Marie Tran ever since first meeting her at the Star Wars: The Last Jedi premiere party. Not only did I wind up falling hard for her new addition to the franchise - Rose Tico, a Resistance mechanic who’s heart is very much in the right place and has the power to inspire others - but Tran herself was also especially warm and bubbling with excitement for the film. As someone who often can’t contain her love for this industry and the stories it shares, seeing someone so enthusiastic while taking her first major step towards becoming a big part of it made that brief encounter unforgettable.Sure enough, Tran took that opportunity, and also her own raw talent, and has been running with it ever since - on screen and off. While using her platform and voice to inspire, Tran is busy racking up impressive film and television credits in a number of different capacities. She starred opposite Elizabeth Olsen in Sorry for Your Loss, she’s been crushing it in the voice act
