27 Stars Who Were Almost One With the Force
The Star Wars universe is ever-expanding, and so is the list of actors who were almost a part of it. Here's who missed out on wielding a lightsaber.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAfter reading the script for the first time, Mark Hamill told writer/director Rian Johnson, "I pretty much fundamentally disagree with every choice you've made for this character. Now having said that, I have gotten it off my chest, and my job now is to take what you've created and do my best to realize your vision". He was surprised by the changes that Johnson made to Luke Skywalker. In order to get into the mindset of an old and weary Luke, Hamill wrote a personal backstory for the character.
- GoofsWhen Poe gets permission to leave the bridge and runs towards the X-Wing bay, several pilots on the bridge follow him, including the alien C'ai Threnalli. However, immediately after we see C'ai run out of frame, there is a reaction shot of Finn with C'ai still standing at a console in the background.
- Quotes
Kylo Ren: I'll destroy her. And you. And all of it.
Luke Skywalker: No. Strike me down in anger and I'll always be with you. Just like your father.
- Crazy creditsIn loving memory of our princess, Carrie Fisher.

Featured review
Has the franchise really devolved to such low depths?
It really is sad to see a Star Wars film and not only not be impressed, but to see it as no more than any other generic Hollywood schlock. A Star Wars film should be cause for excitement and expectation, not simply a quick fix of CGI effects and beloved characters.
Perhaps this was meant to be a parody? The film comes off as an amalgamated collection of every cliche introduced in episodes IV-VI. Watched in that light, The Last Jedi is almost enjoyable. Somehow I doubt that was the intent, though it does suggest there is good potential for a purpose done parody, but I digress....
I blame the Star Wars fanbase. Their gluttonous, insatiable lust for ever more has led to numerous watery entries into the franchise that lack the passion and punch of the first 2.5 films, (_Star Wars_ and _Empire_ are awesome; _Return of the Jedi_ is already showing dangerous signs of self importance).
So, a call to all fans of the franchise. Insist on quality over quantity. We won't see another >REALLY< good Star Wars film until then.
A very generous 4/10. The special effects are good and I always enjoy watching Laura Dern, even in a bad role.
