Mikkelsen was asked by Sky News about his upcoming film roles (notably Rogue One and Marvel’s Doctor Strange). While hesitant at first, Mikkelsen said the following on his feelings when initially approached for the role:
“A little scared. I wasn’t really sure if I was wearing a Stormtrooper outfit or anything like that at that point. I wasn’t sure if I could fit into that. I read the script, it was very beautiful. And Felicity (Jones)’s playing this lovely, young, strong woman and I play her father.”
Very little on Mikkelsen’s character had been revealed until now. It had been rumoured that Mikkelsen would be playing Jyn Erso’s father but this is official confirmation. It was also rumoured that his character is involved with the construction of the Death Star but has a chance of heart. We’ll have to wait and see if that rumour also turns out to be true.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is scheduled for release on December 16th, 2016.
