Talking with Rotten Tomatoes about his upcoming role in 24: Legacy, Jimmy Smits also touched on his return for Rogue One, and why he was keen to do so:
RT: There were reshoots to Rogue One. Did you do any different versions of your scenes, like when you say, “I trust her with my life?”
Smits: No. That was one of the reasons why I did it, because that little scene there meant a lot to me. I’m so happy that the film has done well, because it meant a lot, I think, to the franchise to do this whole thing that the standalone films would be just as substantive and good as the others, so that they can have a life themselves.
