10 Most Random Star Wars Appearances Ever

6. James Bond Goes Undercover - The Force Awakens

Tom Hardy and co. weren't the only well-known British faces who managed to wiggle their way into a Sequel Trilogy film, with a guy who knows a thing or two about holding a weapon also asking if he could make his Star Wars dreams come true when The Force Awakens was in production.

After showing up at Pinewood for a costume fitting one day, 007 actor Daniel Craig simply asked Episode VII assistant director Ben Dixon if he could get a part in J.J. Abrams' movie (listen to the full tale at 33:00 in the video below).

And just like that, he was in.

Smooth, Mr. Bond.

One day later, he was dressed up as a First Order Stormtrooper and being Jedi mind tricked by Rey, with the majority of folks not even clocking the fact that James Bond himself had just been bizarrely fooled into dropping his weapon before their very eyes.

Craig would even tell the Happy Sad Confused podcast that he wanted to keep his rather random appearances going, with the Brit jokingly claiming he asked to be in the next two "but it didn't happen."

What could have been, eh?
