Ben Schwartz Reveals He Had a Second Character in STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS
Last Friday was the ever-popular Star Wars Day (May the Fourth). This “holiday” always features fun posts on social media from everyone including stars like Mark Hamill, and this year was no different. The crazy thing was a post from Ben Schwartz of Parks and Recreation. Fans know that Schwartz helped create BB-8’s voice for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but he revealed he had a second role in the movie. He posted two photos to Twitter of him dressed up as a Stormtrooper. How crazy is that? Two and a half years after the movie came out, and we’re still getting surprises. Sadly, he didn’t reveal what scene(s) he was a Stormtrooper in, but it’s fun to know that any of the bad guys in armor could be the annoying Jean Ralphio. Now I’m waiting for a fan video of a Stormtrooper who talks/sings like him.
