Helen Hunt

And to really prove how committed she is to the cinema classic, which spawned iconic characters like Luke Skywalker and Chewbacca and popularised lightsabers, ...

She said producers were reluctant to cast her because they felt she was ‘too young and not right’ but she was determined to be in the project after reading the script. ‘But you’d have to be dead not to be nervous,’ she said, describing the 85-year-old as an ‘actor’s actor’. After her child’s hard no, Helen said she realised she was ‘right’ to halt the tattoo. Helen managed to convince them otherwise and said she was ‘nervous’ to act next to legend Jack. However, the Twister performer said her daughter put a stop to her dreams, telling her she would be an ‘idiot’ to get the marking. Helen Hunt has been desperate to pay homage to her favourite film Star Wars but her daughter certainly doesn’t approve of the tribute.
