*laughs* - Family means loyalty to her, so meeting someone that she would feel kinship to, but that might be on a different side would be an interesting journey. In episodes 1 and 2 of the Bad Batch we have yet to find out what clone mutation Omega has. I think that it would cause her to… I don't know - I’m trying to think of how to put it into words. So, meeting any other brothers that might not - I think it would be an interesting journey for her meeting a family member that she felt close to that had a very different worldview. MICHELLE: I think, for Omega, family, and any extension of family, is incredibly important and something to be nourished, and cherished, but also, I think her idea of family is loyalty. Is that someone you'd like to see Omega cross paths with and what do you think her reaction would be? ROHAN: While the Bad Batch are her brothers, there's also another clone out there that she hasn't met: Boba Fett. Otherwise, you can get yourself tied into knots in terms of taking on board too much of the external expectations, and the character won't feel as real as I think we've been able to make her because her lived experience is her current experience. I just thought of her literally as like a young girl in that particular circumstance, and I think that's quite important. MICHELLE: My process, in terms of being a voice actor, is very much not being too concerned with the outer world viewing her because like ourselves, you only have that interior view, so my access to Omega was really just taking her as an individual in her own realm, and trying actually very hard to forget that there's this incredibly giant world that's built around her and legacy. ROHAN: When you first stepped into the role of Omega, did her being an original character help you understand who she was quicker and help prepare you for the journey you were going to take her on? We go to places that are emotionally a little higher in stakes, a little darker, and Omiga is challenged in a way that is emotionally - Omega is challenged in an emotional way more than just sort of like physical danger. I think season two is a little bit darker than season one, because of her slightly older outlook. Despite being called The Bad Batch, much of the story of the latest Star Wars animated series actually revolves around Omega, a mysterious clone who runs away from Kamino and the Empire with. I think she's more assertive in certain ways, and has a little bit of a journey to go through in terms of recognizing that she has more frustrations, I guess, like any teenager about when things don't go her way. I think what we see is a more adolescent version of Omega, so she's more ready to challenge her brother's views. She's picked up some new skills and improved on others. Her place in the squad is clearly cemented. There's been about six months since we last saw her and straightaway, you can tell she's so comfortable in the Batch. ROHAN: Omega is slightly older when the new season picks up, where do we find her and what can you tell us about her journey throughout the season?
