Star Wars Outlaw's Humberly Gonzlez Shares Live-Action Hopes

As a passionate fan of both Star Wars and captivating performances, I can wholeheartedly say that Humberly González has all the makings of a fantastic addition to the Star Wars live-action universe. With her impressive portrayal of Kay Vess in the latest video game outing, Star Wars: Outlaws, and her recent role in the horror film Tarot, it’s clear that González possesses the acting chops required to bring this intriguing character to life on the big screen.


Actress Humberly González, who voices and brings to life the character Kay Vess in the new Star Wars: Outlaws video game, is eager to bring this role to live-action. The game, a part of the popular Star Wars series, is set between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, following Vess as she navigates the criminal underworld of the Star Wars universe. The story follows her quest to gather a team for a daring heist. González is among the stars who have voiced, performed motion capture, and lent their likeness to Star Wars video game characters, with fans hoping to see them reprise these roles in live-action, such as Cameron Monaghan as Cal Kestis in both Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor, and Janina Gavankar as Iden Versio in Star Wars: Battlefront II.

As a passionate film buff who graced the screen in the 2024 chilling masterpiece, Tarot, I must confess, the idea of embodying Kay Vess in a live-action setting truly ignites my imagination. In a recent conversation with Variety, I was asked about the possibility of revisiting a Star Wars project, potentially a movie or series on Disney+, and I wholeheartedly welcome this opportunity.

I find it incredibly exciting to imagine Kay Vess appearing in live-action, as animation can’t capture the subtle nuances of human emotions through micro-expressions. The idea of stepping into her world, seeing her in her costume, surrounded by her environment, and watching her interact with real characters, is a dream I’d love to see come true. I wouldn’t pass up the chance if it ever presented itself. Plus, given her role in the original Star Wars trilogy, there are numerous possibilities for her character to reappear or be referenced across different stories and settings. I believe fans would greatly enjoy such an experience.

In the storyline of “Star Wars: Outlaws,” which falls between the events of “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi,” it’s plausible that the character Kay Vess was indeed alive during the period of the New Republic, as depicted in shows like “The Mandalorian.” Given the potential for continuity within the Star Wars universe, Lucasfilm could potentially invite González to reprise her role as Kay Vess for a part in “Ahsoka” Season 2. Additionally, she might also appear in the upcoming film titled “The Mandalorian & Grogu.

Though it seems unlikely that Kay Vess will star in her own standalone TV show or movie within the Star Wars universe, given Lucasfilm’s focus on developing her story through video games, it would be strategic to find ways to include her in broader Star Wars content, such as guest appearances on television and smaller roles in films. As a rapidly rising talent, González is poised to make an impact in the sci-fi world with her role in Paramount+’s original film, Star Trek: Section 31. She will also reprise her character, Sophie Sanchez, in Ginny & Georgia Season 3. By introducing her as a fresh face for the franchise, it could help draw in new audiences who primarily engage with Star Wars through video games, and allow the series to introduce fresh characters without resorting to CGI deep faking of original actors anymore.
