Kelly Marie Tran Picks HARRY POTTER Houses for STAR WARS Characters

In the long march to Star Wars: The Last Jedi, it’s been a joy to watch Kelly Marie Tran share the story about how she learned she had been cast as Rose Tico and make her own porg costume for Halloween. The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson has even described Tran’s character as the most significant new addition to the film. During the recent press event for The Last Jedi, Tran wasn’t allowed to share any further details about Rose’s role in the story. However, she had a lot to say when she was asked to sort the major Star Wars characters into the Hogwarts houses from the Harry Potter universe.

Collider put the unexpectedly delightful question to Tran, and she seemed to be very enthusiastic about the opportunity to speak about her other geek passion. Naturally, Gryffindor was the biggest winner of Tran’s Star Wars character roundup. It’s tough to argue with her placement of Luke Skywalker into Gryffindor, or her reasons why Princess/General Leia, Rey, and Poe Dameron were also a part of that house. It’s a popular house to put heroes into, so we get it.

Other characters weren’t as obvious. She was on the fence about Han Solo and decided he fit best into a couple of houses. We’ll allow it. She also sorts Finn, C-3PO, and more. Watch the video to learn what house colors they should all start wearing.

Do you agree with Tran’s Star Wars selections for the sorting hat? If not, which houses would you choose? Let us know in the comment section below!
