According to multiple sources including the United Kingdom’s Mail, both Prince William and Prince Harry will make minor cameo appearances as First Order stormtroopers in the upcoming Star Wars VIII currently in production.
While the Royal duo visited the Pinewood Studios set where the Star Wars film is currently being filmed, a source told the Mail, “The princes dressed up in full stormtrooper gear and filmed a scene in which Rey and Finn infiltrate a secret base.” The source went on to say, “The rebel characters are in a lift with Benicio del Toro’s character when a group of stormtroopers enter – two of whom are William and Harry.”
It seems that the scene was shot after the royal heirs to the throne met with the film’s director Rian Johnson, along with Mark Hamill, John Boyega and Daisy Ridley along with Chewbacca, BB-8 and other crew members.
The upcoming Star Wars VIII is scheduled to be released December of 2017 and also stars Carrie Fisher as Leia Organa, Adam Driver as Kylo Ren, Andy Serkis as Supreme Leader Snoke, Lupita Nyong’o as Maz Kanata and Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron.
