The Rise of Skywalker will surely offer a lot of surprises to Star Wars fans. And among the anticipated parts of the film is the introduction of Keri Rusell's Zorii Bliss. There's not much known about her role, and so far, there are only a few images that feature Zorii. And now, a newly-released still from the movie gives us another look at the mysterious character.
New images from The Rise of Skywalker were recently released by Empire as part of their December issue's exclusive coverage of the film. Seen in the photo is Zorri Bliss standing tall in what seems to be the planet Kijimi. Everything about the character is mysterious, and since she will be introduced in the movie, fans would have to wait and see what the character offers to the Resistance. You can check out the epic photo below!
The outlet mentioned that director J.J. Abrams was always curious about a female character he saw when he was young, which he believes was in Speed Racer. The said character wore a helmet and rode a motorbike, her face can't be seen which is why Abrams was "obsessed" to know what she actually looked like. Empire writes, "That was the genesis of this character because he always wanted to know who she was."
Aside from Zorii, another new character will also be featured in the movie. Naomi Ackie will play as Jannah, a leader of a warrior tribe on the moon of Kef Bir. There are not many details about the character as well, but Jannah will be related to some of the characters "in a really interesting way."
