Domhnall Gleeson recounted a story to Jimmy Fallon about sneaking into the ‘Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance attraction at Disney and the Stormtrooper actors responding to him as his character, General Hux.
Domhnall Gleeson played General Hux in the Star Wars sequel trilogy films.
While on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the actor recounted an experience he had while sneaking onto The Rise of the Resistance attraction.
What did he say?
“There’s like people playing stormtroopers on the ride. It’s massive.
And when I went I kind of snuck in. And one of the Stormtroopers came over and said, ‘It’s good to see you undercover, General.’ (Gleeson deepened his voice when quoting the stormtrooper) Like that when I was doing the ride.
They stayed in character, and when I was leaving, they all saluted me.
It was amazing! It was really great!”
Gleeson seemed very excited about the entire encounter, and it seems that the Stormtrooper actors were also excited.
What a fun experience.
The Cast Members truly make Disney magical for everyone, even celebrities.
