Many stars have explored a galaxy far, far away in various Star Wars films or TV series through blink-and-you-missed-it cameos.
Prince William and Prince Harry secretly filmed a brief scene in Star Wars: The Last Jedi as stormtroopers. While the scene was ultimately cut ahead of the movie’s theatrical release, the clip was later included in an extended cut.
“They were very nice: Prince William was funny, and Harry as well,” Benicio del Toro, who played a hacker in The Last Jedi, told Radio Times in December 2017. “I think they were very nice. I don’t know how to explain it, but they were very normal.”
While many of these celebrity cameos have been light-hearted, a posthumous appearance by OG star Carrie Fisher, who died in 2016, in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker added a somber touch.
“To be in her final acting [project], in this movie or be it via unused footage, [it] was very emotional to see,” Richard E. Grant, who costarred in the film, exclusively told Us Weekly in December 2019. “It’s been seamlessly done. You wouldn’t know that it hadn’t been shot specifically for this movie.”
