Top 10 Off the Wall Cameos in The Force Awakens
Okay so we all love cameos and trying to figure out if some random blue guy in the background is really Uncle George or his wax figure. Well, I have some good news for you, there will be a lot of cameos in TFA and I received a full list from Kathleene Kennedy herself! It will be like “Where’s Waldo?” on screen but with less red and white striped sweaters. Click continue reading for the full list and remember there are SPOILERS!
Here are FakingStarWars top 10 TFA cameos from a list of about 50.
10. Daniel Craig as a Stormtrooper
This is really no surprise as everyone already knows this, but it is funny to think that James Bond was the front Stormtrooper seen in the first TFA teaser trailer.
9. Simon Pegg as a Scottish cantina alien
Once again, this is already well known that Pegg was at the cast/crew wrap party. What you don’t know is that Pegg will get his alien arms ripped off by Chewbacca in a cantina scene. He will wear a red shirt too.
8. Tom Cruise as a TIE Fighter pilot
JJ’s BFF was able to twist the director’s arm to score a cameo, but this one will be hard to distiguish due to all TIE pilots looking the same in uniform. He will go by the callsign Maverick though.
7. Robert Downey Jr as a protocol droid
Iron Man will make an appearance… not really. RDJ is ironically cameoing as a red and gold plated protocol droid.
6. Elijah Wood as a Hobbit
In the same scene as Simon Pegg, Elijah Wood will make an appearance as a hairy footed Hobbit drinking a pint, a shoutout to The Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit director, Peter Jackson.
5. Jennifer Lawrence as a blue Twi’lek dancer
Rumors were saying X-Men star, Hugh Jackman would cameo in TFA, well they got the wrong mutant. Funny, since she played the blue-skinned Mystique in X-Men: First Class and Days of Future Past.
4. George Lucas as a belching cantina patron
The REAL George will be hiding out in the cantina scene and will let out a loud burp.
3. Kevin Smith as a Rebel pilot
I think it’s great Kevin Smith will cameo in the film. He will be portraying Porkins’ son, Ham flying next to Poe Dameron as seen in the teaser trailer. Note: getting asked to cameo was the real reason he was crying, not because he saw some Stormtrooper crap.
2. Oprah Winfrey as a Rodian senator
Oprah is a closest Star Wars fan I’m told and she litterally paid JJ to give her a cameo. She will be Greedo’s daughter, Greeda.
1. Jake Lloyd as a Darth Vader impersonator
This one just takes the cake for me. Little Annie, all-grown-up, is back in Star Wars but as a Vader impersonator. Think the Elvis impersonators out in Vegas but a lot more tacky. Kathleen told me he litterally begged to be in the movie and JJ got tired of his constant texting (we will share those later).
Let us know if you want the full list. Untill then, stay tuned fanboys and girls!
