20 Movies Starring Star Wars Actors In 2017

2. Wilson - Woody Harrelson & Laura Dern

Star Wars Episode 1 Mace Windu Kong Skull Island Samuel L Jackson
Fox Searchlight

Release Date: March 24, 2017

Technically speaking, Wilson includes two Star Wars actors, though neither of them have appeared in released Star Wars movies yet, and one of them hasn't even started shooting.

This dramedy from Craig Johnson (The Skeleton Twins) and produced by the legendary Alexander Payne stars Harrelson as the titular neurotic middle-aged man, who attempts to make nice with his estranged wife (Dern) and daughter.

Harrelson looks absolutely fantastic in the trailer, and Dern's surely not going to be far behind. It's obviously totally divorced from the sort of work they'll be doing in Star Wars, but could easily end up a 2018 awards player depending on how it's received in Sundance and beyond.
