Interviewing famous people in an small room is something that each time I do it, I think “How lucky am I?” This time around while in Los Angeles we were taken to a screening of the new Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion and had the opportunity to set down and interview Vanessa Marshall and Tiya Sircar   As we all know Star Wars is a huge legacy and something that many of us grew up watching. While I do admit, I’m not the biggest Star Wars fan, this new animated version was fun to watch and made sense to even me!

Vanessa Marshall and Tiya Sircar

Vanessa Marshall does the voice of Hera Syndulla and Tiya Sircar is the voice of Sabine Wren in the new Star Wars Spark of Rebellion Series. This dynamic duo loved their characters as well as their jobs and that was apparent throughout the entire interview. I was lucky enough to have met Vanessa Marshall at the movie theater where we attended the pre-screening and she even remembered who I was later in the week. She is truly an amazing woman, and one that could easily be considered a friend in a few short minutes.

Auditions for Star Wars Spark of Rebellion Series

Just like Freddie Prinze Jr. and Dave Filoni they to thought they were auditioning for an animated series on Disney called Wolf. But in the end they were both very glad they didn’t know they were auditioning for Star Wars until auditions were over. But it wasn’t as nerve-wracking because they didn’t know they were auditioning for something as big as Star Wars. But when they found out they had gotten the job it was doubly exciting, way more excited than they realized according to Tiya. Vanessa said, “I’m a huge Star Wars fan. So, I felt that there were elements of Star Wars within the piece of copy that I read.”

When Vanessa received the call, she was professional, but after that she hyperventilated and her agent was literally afraid for her  life. She was like, honey, do I need to call a paramedic? But Vanessa was able to tell her no, and went on crying with joy. But reflected on the audition saying, “it was probably a good thing that I didn’t know what I was doing. Because I would’ve been terrified.”

Voice Over Animation Series

Both Vanessa and Tiya loved how they can  all be in the same room to do this voice over animation series. Because they are all together it is a treat and the collective love of Star Wars that is in the room is an energy that is something that the viewers will feel while watching Star Wars Rebels. It doesn’t feel like work while they are doing it, it just makes your job easier and more enjoyable.

Sabine’s Character

Sabine’s character is Mandalorian and very multi-dimensional so she wears the full Mandalorian armor that has been graffitied. Sabine actually designs her own costume, embellishes her armour.

Favorite Characters

When asked who their Star Wars Universe favorite characters were, their answers were both honest and well thought out. Vanessa’s favorite Star Wars Universe Character is Princess Leia, because she’s a strong female character, as well as Ahsoka from the Clone Wars because they have the same principles and are inspiring. Tiya’s favorite is Han Solo for her own viewing pleasure, but as an inspiration, Leia.
