The Last of Us star Gabriel Luna is keen to appear in a Star Wars project. So much so, in fact, that the actor, who plays Tommy Miller in the new HBO show, once wrote a letter to The Mandalorian's Dave Filoni asking to play a live-action version of Rebels character Ezra Bridger.
"It's a dream of mine. I mean, there's all kinds of possibilities there," he admitted on The Last of Pods. "I was just talking to [The Last of Us co-creator] Neil [Druckmann] at the party and I was like, 'Yeah, Neil, until we do that, until that time comes when it's time for Star Wars,' and I'm just wishful thinking and hoping. Once again, I will always prepare as if I have the job. If that day should ever come, I'll be ready.
"This was me throwing my hat in for a certain Ezra Bridger," Luna went on, recalling the letter. "This was years ago, not ever knowing if they would ever do anything with Ezra. But it was just, that's one, he's probably my, besides Luke, he's my favorite character. Well, actually, I'm sorry, R2, Luke, Ezra Bridger."
