The princes popped into the Pinewood Studios last week where the latest installment of the Star Wars franchise is being filmed. This had led to speculation that the pair have shot a short cameo for the upcoming film. According to reports from the Daily Mail, they geared up in Stormtrooper attire in an elevator scene with Boyega, Ridley and new cast member Benicio Del Toro. It wouldn't be the first for a surprise cameo, as Daniel Craig graced the screen momentarily in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Whether of not these are only rumors, we will just have to wait and see. Regardless, the pair had a great time touring Pinewood Studios and got up close and personal with the cast (including Daisy Ridley and John Boyega) and film favourites Chewbaca and BB-8.
