Star Wars: The Last Jedi arrives at the end of the year, continuing the epic new chapter of the saga started in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Like with Episode VII, there is so much secrecy surrounding Looper director Rian Johnson's Episode VIII storyline that we barely have a synopsis.
A large part of keeping the secrets of The Last Jedi a secret falls on the shoulders of the cast, and few have felt that burden more than Force Awakens star Daisy Ridley, who has been consistently hounded to reveal The Last Jedi secrets - not just from (over-)eager fans, but from fellow celebrities, as well.
Book of Mormon star-turned-comedic actor Josh Gad has made a series of videos based on ambushing Daisy Ridley for secrets of The Last Jedi, and as you can see above, he's really outdone himself with this latest video. If you don't recognize all of the celebrities and filmmakers that appear in the video, don't worry, neither do we! However, we do have a list of some of the major names to appear:
- Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 & Jurassic World 2 star Chris Pratt. (Sheepishly boasting about his Marvel connections)
- Pratt's Jurassic World 2 co-star Bryce Dallas Howard (making fun of her character's high heel attire)
- Colin Trevorrow (director of Jurassic World 1 & Star Wars: Episode IX)
- Penelope Cruz
- J.J. Abrams
The other great part of the video is the nerdy nature of the questions most of the celebrities are asking. Cruz's spanish inquiry into Snoke's identity is a particular standout - but J.J. asking if Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) will get an actual speaking role is the finale that puts icing on the cake.
