Brie Larson, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and More Celebs Who Are Obsessed With ‘Star Wars’

Brie Larson, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and more celebrities aren’t afraid to nerd out when it comes to loving Star Wars. Though Larson’s professional loyalty lies with the Marvel franchise, George Lucas‘ space operas have always held a special place in her heart. When preparing to film the heart-wrenching movie Room, she knew just how to earn her young costar Jacob Tremblay’s trust. “I asked him some questions about Star Wars,” she told Yahoo Movies in October 2015. “And once he knew that I could talk shop regarding Star Wars, then it was easy.” Like the Oscar winner, many celebrities have a lifelong connection to the sci-fi franchise. Kevin Smith has frequently made his love for Star Wars clear — and even got choked up when visiting J.J. Abrams on the set of The Force Awakens in June 2014. “I signed the NDA so all I can share are this old Bantha-Tracks subscriber’s tears and snotty nose of joy,” he wrote at the time, posting a tearful selfie on Instagram. “The Force is WITH this movie. Holy Sith…” Scroll down to see more celebrities who are obsessed with Star Wars!

When the original Star Wars movie hit theaters in 1977, then-8-year-old Pegg was enchanted. “I was the exact demographic for that film,” he told the Guardian in October 2010. “I was a f–king 1m-high target, and it got me right through the eyes. I can mark out my life from that point in terms of my relationship with that film.” He later made a small cameo in 2015’s The Force Awakens.
