She admitted that before auditioning for
Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018), she has never watched any Star Wars movie at all, and therefore had no idea what a droid was. She assumed that her character would be a human and delivered her lines accordingly during the audition. The directors liked her performance, but they asked her to perform her lines a bit more "droid-y", which she did after being explained what a droid is. However, the directors preferred her initial non-droid performance, which got her the part.
