Felicity Jones stole 'uncool' brown boots from film set

OHMYGOSSIP — Felicity Jones took a pair of “uncool” brown lace up boots from ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ set.
The 33-year-old actress has revealed she helped herself to her character Jyn Erso’s boots once she had finished filming the science fiction production, because she had had her eye on them for “quite a long time”.
Speaking about the piece of memorabilia she stole from the film’s fashion cupboard to the Metro newspaper, the brunette beauty said: “I took Jyn’s boots. They were these really nice brown lace-ups I’d had my eye on for quite a long time. I did ask permission.”
Although the ‘The Theory of Everything’ star has admitted she took a liking to the item of footwear, she has revealed she had to make some alterations to the shoes to suit her style.
She explained: “Though they had these uncool Velcro straps on that I quickly took off, because in ‘Star Wars’ you can’t have buttons or zips or laces. There are a lot of idiosyncratic rules like that, if you look, all the ‘Star Wars’ costumes wrap around or have these other ingenious ways of staying on you without using buttons.”
Meanwhile, Felicity has revealed she was thrilled she was cast as the lead female role in the hotly anticipated film as she believes it is a genre, which is “traditionally dominated by men”.
Speaking previously, she said: “Jyn is a fantastic woman … I saw her as being tough and decisive and I tried to capture that attitude and portray her as an extraordinary heroine. We rarely see a woman like this in film …
“It’s important and exciting that this genre, which is traditionally dominated by men, is now featuring a woman in a central role. I spent hours practicing for the fight scenes. I even had to learn kung fu with my own coach, and I would work for hours every day learning the moves.”
