Out of this galaxy! They usually are not seen all together. But somehow Jimmy Kimmel managed to assemble nearly the entire Star Wars: The Last Jedi cast together in his Hollywood studio on Friday
Team power: Mark Hamill was there as well as Daisy Ridely, Adam Driver and John Boyega. Also seen was director Rian Johnson and cast members Laura Dern, Andy Serkis, Oscar Isaac, Gwendoline Christie and Kelly Marie Tran
They made it: Also seen on set were droid BB-8 and Chewbacca seemed to be wrapped as a Christmas tree
Also seen was director Rian Johnson and cast members Laura Dern, Andy Serkis, Oscar Isaac, Gwendoline Christie and Kelly Marie Tran.
Carrie Fisher passed away in December 2016 and the other notable cast mate, Harrison Ford, is not in The Last Jedi.
The film opens in the US on December 15.
He is in fine form: Hamill, who plays Luke Skywalker, talked to Jimmy as they looked at a Porg
Sitting pretty: Ridely, in a black dress with a wide belt and sparkly pumps, sat on the sofa
Cool: Driver, who plays Kylo Ren, wore all black which fits his Star Wars character
Also seen on set were droid BB-8 and Chewbacca seemed to be wrapped as a Christmas tree.
On Jimmy’s desk was a Porg, the new animal introduced in Jedi, which looks like a penguin.
Daisy sat down with Kimmel for an interview as did Mark.
Nice entrance: Kimmel was walked out by two Stormtroopers
Luke has a way with the force: Hamill led the discussion on the late night show
Kimmel grilled Driver, Hamill, Johnson and Ridley.
Driver said that it finds it funny that kids in his NYC building come to his door dressed as his character Kylo Ren for Halloween. He added that he doesn’t give out any more candy to kids in Star Wars costume.
Next was Johnson. Kimmel asked him about the film title The Last Jedi.
‘In my mind it was always singular, it always referred to Luke,’ said Rian who was asked if there was one Jedi left or more.
Daisy is asked if her character was related to anyone in the cast. She smiled big and then deferred to Johnson.
In the film: Ridley as Rey as she meets up with her new mentor Luke
He has his old light saber back: Hamill as Skywalker with his fake hand
‘This whole saga is about family, a dysfunctional family,’ said Hamill.
He also did an amazing impression of Ford, who Mark said did not know that Darth Vader was Luke’s dad until later. Hamill had to keep that fact a secret for over a year.
And he talked Luke’s relationship with Ren.
‘In my mind I was a great uncle to Ben Solo and I feel tremendous guilt that I was not there for him. Talk about a nefarious nephew!’ he added.
Gone too soon: Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia in The Last Jedi, her last film
This comes just after Mark talked to American Way magazine.
‘Fans can be just brutal,’ he told December’s edition of the American Airlines publication.
He talked 1977’s Star Wars.
‘On one hand, I liked the idea because, when I look back, I never had so much fun making movies. Ever,’ he says of his time on the Original Star Wars trilogy. ‘But part of me was very terrified.’
Coming soon: The Last Jedi opens in the US on December 15 from director Rian Johnson
‘Why go back and take the chance of ruining—or at least tarnishing—people’s memories of it?’
He said some of the things fans said about the prequel trilogy, starting with 1999’s The Phantom Menace (which did not feature Luke, but did feature one Jar Jar Binks) were ‘just so over the top.’
‘I can see it’s not your favorite movie, but it ruined your childhood? Come on. Let’s put it in perspective,’ he said.
