There༺ are normal secret cameos and then there’s this Solo: A Star Wars Story came𒈔o

Star Wars Easter eggs are just about the most highly-guarded secrets in the galaxy. The top-secret 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Solo: A Star Wars Story cameo was one such thing. It was so hush-hush, in fact, that even the person filming the cameo didn’t even know if they’d be in the final cut, such was the secrecy behind everything involved. Spoilers for Solo: A Star Wars Story are down below so, if you haven’t seen th🃏e movie, you might want to take five – unless you want to join the D🦹ark Side, that is.
“I’ve been working on this for three years to get you back,” Ray Park reveals when speaking to about Solo: A Star Wars Story writer Lawrence Kasdan’s decision to get the (again: spoiler) Darth Maul cameo ball rolling. But even then, ⛄there were a fair few Jedi mind tricks involved as the team wanted to keep the identity of the Crimson Dಌawn leader under wraps.
The eventual cameo, which😼 saw 💝Emilia Clarke’s Qi’ra take the reins, betray Han, and forge her own villainous path before contacting Darth Maul, was a surprise to many, including Ray Park himself, despite the character’s resurrection away from the main series of movies.
“For that time until I filmed &nda𝓡sh; and even when I did film – they kept on saying ‘They’ve got someone else, they&rsqജuo;re playing around with a few different characters.’ I was nervous until I sat there in the cinema.”
Credit, then, has to go to everyone in the mix for making sure the Solo: A Star Wars Story cameo didn’t leak out &nd🌜ash; even if it meant screwing with Ray Park for a bit. The Darth Maul reveal was a capper on a pretty decent movie, and it’s definitely opened up things for a potentially very exciting se🌸quel.
Eager to see what happens next? Here's what that shocking Darth Maul cameo might mean for future Star Wars sequels.
