Besides, it’s like Alan Tudyk said: Nerely probably wouldn’t have been able to score a role like that anyway.
Regardless, Star Wars fans won’t see this fun pop-in on the big screen, but there’s still a chance it could be included as a deleted scene on the home media release.
He’s basically a much-less successful Alan Tudyk, which is fitting since Tudyk created the show and based it off his own experiences, but that’s beside the point.
So had this cameo been kept in Rogue One’s final cut, we would have seen Tudyk, an actor, play another actor who had been cast in the first Star Wars “Anthology” spinoff as a pilot.
