Katy O’Brian is in the rare group of actors who have starred in both Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with her appearance as freedom fighter leader Jentorra in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania coming mere weeks before her small role as “Comms Officer” in The Mandalorian garnered a high-profile role in Season 3 and a name — Elia Kane.

But O’Brian thought her MCU debut would come much later. Due to the secretive audition process Marvel Studios follows, she wasn’t even aware what role — or even what project — she was going out for.

O’Brian spoke to Inverse about Jentorra, the moments that didn’t make the final cut, how filming compared to Star Wars, and her upcoming film, Love Lies Bleeding, directed by Saint Maud’s Rose Glass.

For over 400 years, the Vikings thrived on Greenland. Two settlements, one on the southern tip of the island and the other slightly farther up the coast, became home to a small but steady population of Norse colonists.

But by the end of the 15th century, all traces of Viking life on the island mysteriously disappeared. What’s left is one of the biggest questions in Norse history: why did the Vikings abandon Greenland?

Researchers writing in the journal Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences propose an answer.
