#anybody ask for a krennic and dedra parallel post? no? well you're getting it anyway

"Gareth described Krennic to me as a guy who didn’t come up through the officer class, if you like; he was more of a guy from the outer colonies who had made his way up more by virtue of the way he’d conducted himself, and by his abilities. So, Krennic’s voice is not ever meant to be the pure officer-class voice that you associate with the Star Wars universe." - Ben Mendelsohn

"So when I spoke to Tony about what Dedra has come from, she didn’t come from much. She’s an outsider, and she’s looking for a way to be important and to be considered important. And just like Syril, she wants to find control and to be able to be in a position of power so that she can feel in control. And in this industry that she’s in, she looks around and sees a lot of men of privilege being able to just kind of wing it, and it’s not in Dedra’s nature to wing it." - Denise Gough

"He is not of the principled Coruscanti classes, able to verbally parry and weave in debates and politics. Krennic's temper is far more volatile, a fact that makes some, like Grand Moff Tarkin, uncomfortable." - Rogue One the Ultimate Visual Guide by Pablo Hidalgo

"A rising officer within the ISB, Dedra Meero transfers from the Enforcement desk to Investigations. Her relatively young age and aggressive approach upsets the dull dynamic of ISB Central Office briefings." - Dawn of Rebellion The Visual Guide by Pablo Hidalgo and Emily Shkoukani

“I like the idea that Ben’s character was much more working-class [and rose in the ranks] through sheer force of personality and ideas." That said, the director adds, Krennic “hits a brick wall in the hierarchy where they won’t let him in the club and it’s going to turn into a them-or-us situation: either Krennic or Tarkin and the others.” - Gareth Edwards

As we really built out Dedra in our little writers room, we were like, “Oh, my God, she’s a woman in this place and no one takes her seriously, and she’s working harder than anybody else does. And she’s not getting credit for it.” And then we got to where she turns. We were really like, “Oh, my God. Wow, we were rooting for her a minute ago.” - Tony Gilroy
