Behind the scenes
Kira is set to be portrayed by Emilia Clarke in Solo: A Star Wars Story. Clarke's casting in the film was first announced on November 18, 2016. The characters name was revealed by former co-star Michael Kenneth Williams in an interview with Vanity Fair. There are reports that the actual spelling is Kura instead of Kira, however there has been no official confirmation of that.

During the development of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, the character who eventually became Rey was originally known as Kira, a name that stemmed from George Lucas' early drafts for the sequel trilogy.
