Star Wars: The Last Jedi's UK Pop Star Cameo Isn’t What You Thought It Would Be

Cameos in the Star Wars saga have been fun to spot—or sometimes really hard to spot until the credits, because of that darn Stormtrooper mask.

For Star Wars: The Last Jedi, an earlier hinted cameo won't be hidden entirely in the dark as a Stormtrooper. Confirming in an interview with Lorraine (via The Sun), Take That's Gary Barlow said that his role won't be a Stormtrooper.

"I'm not a Stormtrooper, but I am in it. Now I've said that, I'll probably be out. I think the Star Wars people are so strict about what information [is out there]. So me saying that, I've probably just done myself out of a role."

Of course, this isn't true, since Lorraine's Dan Wootton had confirmed first with the franchise's execs for the reveal, so all is good, and we'll probably still see Barlow. Unless he's got a ton of makeup or prosthetics on him in the movie.

This isn't the first time that Barlow was reported to have a role in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. As early as May 2016, it was already reported that he had finished filming secretly at Pinewood Studios. However, the reports back then had pointed to a Stormtrooper role.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi will be out in theaters on Dec. 15.
