Indira Varma reveals her Imperial double agent Tala was originally conceived as a possible love interest on 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' and had different backstories.
"They felt that it was maybe a bit clichéd where always the woman turns up and they fall in love or whatever," says Varma. "And it's more interesting that this is a woman with agency who is not just going to fall at the feet of Obi-Wan."
it could be a friends to lovers situation because when you’re friends with someone you’re not falling at their feet, i am riding so much on this copium rn
and a desi actress as the love interest???
also i would write fic for this but i am not a star wars fan so i’m waiting for someone else to do it please
