Minority Mindset

Recently, a popular rumor started spreading that a major character will make a surprise appearance at the end of the new Starfighter movie. Fans have been guessing who it might be, and many believe it could be Rey Skywalker, played by Daisy Ridley.

Critics are starting to review The Wrecking Crew just before it arrives on Prime Video, and the early reviews on Rotten Tomatoes give it an 80% fresh rating.

The original Star Wars sequels (The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi) reunited the cast of the first film, and both the prequel and sequel trilogies brought back several actors from earlier movies. This also happened with Solo, which even included appearances by Princess Leia, Grand Moff Tarkin, and Darth Vader.

During its five-year run on NBC (from fall 1984 to summer 1989), Miami Vice rapidly gained a large following and made Don Johnson a highly sought-after actor. He grew tired of playing a police officer, so he willingly turned down the opportunity to star opposite Al Capone in The Untouchables. In a recent interview, Johnson revealed his reasons for declining the role, which ultimately launched Kevin Costner’s career. The Untouchables allowed Costner to move into directing, producing, and writing, proving that appearances and roles can significantly shape a person’s path.

In the episode “Hard Salt Beef,” the knight, Dunk, asks the artist Tanselle to paint his shield. Their conversation is a bit clumsy and amusing, especially when Tanselle reveals that she was teased as a child for being so tall. Dunk’s young companion, Egg, later jokes that they’re both very large. The actress Olivia Cooke, who plays Tanselle, says she was very aware of discussions about her height online and wanted to make it clear she’s a full six feet tall, not just five-nine – which she considers her “worst nightmare.”
