Ever since Star Wars: Episode IV \u2013 A New Hope<\/em> was first released in 1977, the sci-fi series has enamored fans of all shapes and sizes. Initially considered to be a risky venture when first in-production, that 1977 film went on to be the then-most successful movie of all time, with audiences queueing in the streets to see it. It\u2019s no surprise, then, that many of the original audience grew up to be some of the biggest celebrities around today. And what\u2019s the point of being a celebrity if they can\u2019t wrangle their fame into cameoing in their favorite film series?<\/p>\n

Indeed, a plethora of celebrities have cameoed in Star Wars<\/em> films, appearing in the background or in bit-parts; anything to visit a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. In fact, the so-called \u2018Sequel Trilogy\u2019 is full to the brim with celebrities\u2026 although usually they\u2019re heavily disguised. Whether dressed as Storm Troopers, wearing heavy prosthetics to become aliens, or simply just lending their voice to key robots, so many big names have \u2018appeared\u2019 in the Sequel Trilogy, and fans have missed them.<\/p>\n

However, thanks to some eagle-eyed viewers (or the celebrities themselves excitedly ranting about the experience on Instagram or talk shows), many have now been able to identify all the famous faces cameoing in the sequel trilogy. While some are most obvious than others, here are a selection that fans may have missed\u2026 and few more that they never actually got to see!<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The star of fan-favorite films like Shaun of the Dead<\/em> and the Mission: Impossible<\/em> franchise, Simon Pegg was actually one of the first cameos of the sequel trilogy, playing the intemperate broker that Rey (Daisy Ridley) trades with<\/a> for credits at the beginning of The Force Awakens<\/em>. Pegg likely got the role due to his vocal love for the Star Wars<\/em> series, and his close friendship with director J. J. Abrams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

One of the more memorable scenes of The Force Awakens<\/em> is when Rey and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) <\/a>finally meet, with Ren interrogating the incipient Jedi. However, the scene is even more memorable due to Daniel Craig being the Storm Troopers that Rey first uses her Jedi powers on. If that wasn\u2019t enough, this Storm Trooper\u2019s code is JB-007, a knowing nod to Craig\u2019s most famous role.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Widely known for his roles in Love Actually<\/em>, Game of Thrones<\/em>, and The Queen\u2019s Gambit<\/em>, British actor Thomas Brodie-Sangster appears in The Force Awakens<\/em> as one of the Petty Officers under General Hux\u2019s command<\/a>, In a blink-or-you\u2019ll-miss-it appearance, the actor can be seen pressing random buttons.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The self-appointed Prince of Nerd Culture, Kevin Smith is one of Star Wars<\/em>\u2019 biggest fans, so it\u2019s appropriate that he has a tiny cameo at the start of the \u2018Sequel Trilogy\u2019. He lends his voice to the Storm Trooper who first spots Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) and his Resistance squadron flying into Maz Kanata\u2019s (Lupita Nyong’o) castle.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt has appeared in every single one of director Rian Johnson\u2019s films<\/a> (including Looper <\/em>and Brick<\/em>), and The Last Jedi<\/em> doesn\u2019t break this streak<\/a>. Cameoing as the alien Slowen Lo, the character can be seen talking to the planet\u2019s authorities on Canto Bright. Another fun detail about this character: his name comes from a Beastie Boys song.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

It\u2019s not only human celebrities that can cameo: Carrie Fisher\u2019s beloved dog Gary<\/a> (who has appeared with her countless times on TV shows and interviews) actually appears in the Canto Bright sequence, as a cute space dog owned by one of the casino\u2019s patrons.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

One of the more obvious cameos in the film, acclaimed actor and writer Justin Theroux plays the Master Codebreaker who Finn and Rose believe can help them on their mission (spoiler: he can\u2019t, so all Justin can offer is a cameo!)<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The creator of Hamilton<\/em><\/a>\u00a0had already helped out in the Star Wars <\/em>universe before (he contributed to The Force Awakens<\/em>\u2019 soundtrack), but that\u2019s nothing to his appearance at the end of the \u2018Sequel Trilogy\u2019. The acclaimed writer and performer appears for a brief second during the celebrations at the end of the film, as the resistance rejoices over the defeat of Palpatine and the First Order.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The only thing worse than having a tiny role is having a tiny role that doesn\u2019t even make it into the movie! Despite being massive Star Wars<\/em> fans and filming appearances as Storm Troopers, neither Tom Hardy<\/a>, Prince William, or Prince Harry actually get to appear on-screen; their scenes were deleted during the editing process.<\/p>\n
