Nerdist recently sat down with the stars of LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy to chat about the fun and fan-forward new entry in Star Wars‘ world. Gaten Matarazzo and Tony Revolori voice the main characters, Dev and Sig Greebling, in this fantastical new tale. But the duo is also well known for playing two other beloved figures in nerd-favorite properties. Matarazzo brings Stranger Things‘ Dustin Henderson to life, while Revolori is MCU Spider-Man‘s Flash Thompson. Dustin, of course, is a nerd genius himself, while Flash pretends to be cool, but we know he has a nerdy heart. But what would these two characters think about LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy? Matarazzo and Revolori gave us a little insight into that question, and their thoughtful answers also shed some fun new light on their Stranger Things and Spider-Man characters.
Here’s what they had to say:
Matarazzo: I think Dustin is very critical of the stuff that he watches and is a big Star Wars fan himself. But I have a hard time believing that Dustin wouldn’t have secret YouTube accounts where he comments the same mean comment on trailers. But this is when he’s 40, and his kids catch him. His kids are like, “Dad, why do you need nine YouTube accounts all devoted to how bad you think this trailer is? I think that’s what his vibe might be.
Revolori: I think Flash would secretly absolutely love this. He would have a secret tattoo of the brothers, and if anyone asked him about it, he’d be like, “No, no, no. That’s a kid show. No. Yeah, no, it’s stupid.” He’d completely deny it. But he would love secretly it so much.
We’re obsessed with the headcanon of Stranger Things‘ Dustin Henderson being a secret hater of fun. But we bet Steve Harrington would absolutely love LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy, much to Dustin’s total dismay. Perhaps you doth protest too much, Dustin. But we love even more Revolori’s vision of Flash being absolutely invested in LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy. This endearing fact makes us like Flash so much more.
All four parts of LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy are streaming now on Disney+.
