I’ve had videos of little girls crying because they finally can pick up a Rose action figure and it looks like them.

Something that I really like about Rose, she’s sort of always on a mission. She is a very practical person, she’s very pragmatic. The journey that she and Finn go seems pretty impossible, you can tell in this moment that she’s very much aware of the dangers that they are about to face, but she’s also logically in her mind problem-solving on the way.
She knows exactly, probably, how many things can go wrong in a situation. That [
the crescent-shaped necklace she’s wearing ] is definitely something that is significant to Rose’s backstory. It is an object that she kind of has throughout the film and it is representative of more than the object itself to her. So, yeah, that’s all I can say. It has significance that is, to me, something that means more than just what the object itself is. – Kelly Marie Tran.
“A few tidbits coming from DK’s new book titled ‘Star Wars Made Easy’. The book is part of the ‘Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ series, and offers an easy way to introduce Star Wars to your kids and friends who are not familiar with the movies and beyond. The segment about The Last Jedi offered another interesting quote about the Resistance and General Leia. Also the book offered a new detail about Kelly Marie Tran’s character Rose Tico.”
The Resistance
‘The Resistance won the battle, but not the war, and now the First Order knows where they are hiding. Evacuation will likely be the order of the day, and the Resistance will have to find a new home to set up for the coming struggle. They will look to General Organa for guidance.’
General Leia Organa
‘Leia knows that the Resistance’s only hope is to hold out long enough for rescue.’
Rose
‘Rose serves as a technician in the Resistance. She is tough, smart, and loyal, but she has a tragic past that she prefers to keep hidden. Thrown together by a twist of fate, Rose and Finn will be spending a lot of time in each other’s company.’

“Poe Dameron is super cool. Finn’s super cool. Even though [Rose] is good at what she does, she’s not known,” Tran says. “She’s not cool. She’s this nobody, this background player, which is what makes her interesting. She’s not the best. She’s not royalty. She’s someone who is just like everyone else.”
