“Are you kidding me?,” Beals recently responded to Variety when asked if she knew a lot about her character going into the role. “I mean, I knew about the character. But this is how good they are at the lockdown of secrets: Even when I first stepped onto the set, I didn’t realize that I was in The Book of Boba Fett. I just knew that I was getting to be part of this story.”
