Even showed a picture of the Swedish actress that did the Leia scene. I think they might have been able to just make her up as Leia.
As for the blind monk.

I will no longer post here. Sorry for the confusion that I may have created.
BTW: the two others have good discussions going on. One goes off on several "maybe" tangents and has lots to consider, so much so that I have not had a chance to respond and reply intelligently.

And just because Chirrut isn't a Jedi, that doesn't mean he's not a complete badass character in Rogue One. I'm telling you, this dude is awesome. He marches through a horde of Stormtroopers shooting their blasters and deflects every shot with his cool, magical walking stick. He can sense when someone is about to kill. And he shoots a freaking Tie Fighter out of the sky with a bazooka-like weapon without even being able to see it. So no, Chirrut isn't a Jedi, but he might as well be. We know that, in the Star Wars universe, people can be super strong with the Force and still not be Jedi (Ahsoka Tano for example), but at this point in the timeline, the Jedi are few. Still, seeing another character in the franchise able to wield Force powers make Rogue One all the more fun and magical, and yes, a bit more badass.

With Star Wars, different characters are force-sensitive. He did things like fight an entire squad of stormtroopers, walk where blaster bolts weren't, and shoot a TIE fighter out of the sky. I'd say he was force-sensitive, like Leia and Han, and perhaps he could have been trained as a Jedi, but he wasn't a Jedi.
