Star Wars films have attracted a large number of celebrities. However, there are few, if any, cameos by Star Wars celebrities in The Original Trilogy due to the fact that it was never intended to become a phenomenon. Also, there were a few more cameos when the series returned in 1999 with The Phantom Menace. Not only did Lucas allow actors to appear in Star Wars, but he also allowed his film crew and their families, as well as Lucas’ own sons and daughters, to do so. In fact, celebrity cameos in Star Wars had reached royal levels of fame by the time The Last Jedi arrived in December 2017. This is real royalty – there are two princes in the film.
