Solo Star Wars Story: Who plays Enfys Nest? Fans want the actress to get her own spin-off

It was a rousing moment in the spin-off movie when the mysterious figure (and presumed antagonist) took off their mask to reveal the young woman, who was actually leading a very good cause.

Now, fans want the character to get her own Star Wars story.

Per her agent’s website, 19-year-old actress Erin Kellyman is a relative newcomer, but she is on a sharp upward trajectory.

She’s currently filming the BBC’s Les Miserables adaptation, in the iconic role of Eponine.

She was also in Raised by Wolves, and The Coopers Vs The Rest.

Writing on Twitter, one fan said: “Erin Kellyman deserves a f**king lead role in the Star Wars franchise.”

Another said: “I’d like that #enfysnest movie starring Erin Kellyman now, please. Heck, I’ll write it if you want. #SoloAStarWarsStory.”

Reacting to the ill-received Boba Fett spin-off news, someone else said: “Characters who I’d rather see get a spinoff movie instead of Boba Fett: 1. Enfys Nest.”

“who do a b***h gotta kill for an enfys nest movie,” ranted another.

The identity of the performer behind Enfys Nest was kept a secret in the run-up to the film’s release, presumably to build up anticipation over who exactly was behind the mask.

The fact it was someone so young – after they were built-up to be a ferocious older villain – was a pretty good pay-off.

Solo: A Star Wars Story has had reasonably good reviews, and should comfortably win the Memorial Day weekend box office in the US.

It will, however, mark the lowest opening weekend so far for a Star Wars film since the Disney takeover.

Solo: A Star Wars Story is out now.
