10 Star Wars Bloopers You Need To See

5. General F*x - Episode IX: The Rise Of Skywalker

Though there have a been a few occasional curses let loose in the franchise recently, it's still incredibly rare to witness even the most detestable of baddies swear their heads off mid-Star Wars exchange.

And thats what makes the visual of Domhnall Gleeson's General Armitage Hux increasingly losing his cool over the course of shooting a sequence in The Rise of Skywalker so compelling to behold.

Whilst wandering around the First Order Steadfast vessel with a cane after having Finn blast him in the leg, the undercover spy is soon found out by Richard E. Grant's formidable Allegiant General Enric Pryde and taken out there and then.

Only, this wasn't a case of smashing it in one take by any means as Gleeson consistently struggled to deliver his lying report to the Allegiant General without suddenly bursting into a sea of expletives on the day; something that was comically revealed during the film's bloopers.

The key takeaway here is that the hilariously forgetful Gleeson seemed to be making it his mission to crack up the entire cast and crew throughout Episode IX, with his chaotic repeated deliveries of "YES! WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME!" also leaving his teammates in stitches while shooting, too.
