Rose Byrne, who played Dormé, one of Padmé Amidala’s handmaids in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, has shared on the Happy Sad Confused podcast how she’s ready to return to Star Wars at any time, “I’m ready! No one’s called. Maybe after this, they will.”
“I mean, to be even a microscopic piece of the [Star Wars] universe is so sweet, how you just resonate, and you’re still are part of this dialogue, this chain of characters in this film, this universe that resonates with people,” Bryne shared on Monday’s episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast.
Dedicated Star Wars heads could never forget Byrne’s small part in the second installment in the prequel trilogy, Attack of the Clones. But Dormé, a handmaid to Natalie Portman’s Queen-turned-Senator Padmé Amidala, utters only “about one or two lines,” per Byrne, before she disappears.
Still, the 46-year-old Australian star described being part of the extended Star Wars family as “so wonderful, I’ve grown to love it,” and proclaimed that she’s “ready” to return any time. “I’m ready! No one’s called. Maybe after this, they will.”
Padmé tells the ship captain to “take good care of Dormé,” touching Byrne’s character on the wrist and explaining, “the threat’s on you two now.” Dormé wryly responds, “He’ll be safe with me,” but her smile quickly melts into stoic tears, betraying her fear for her mistress. Dormé then rebuffs Padmé’s own fears for her, stating, “It’s not me my lady, I worry about you.”
Among her limited smattering of lines, Byrne said she favors her emotional exchange with Portman’s Padmé: “The first one I feel is more resonant. It’s a fraught situation. I’m establishing there’s a situation, and it’s fraught, and my feelings about it, and her feelings about it.”
