Martin Freeman says he’s definitely interested in appearing in a Star Wars movie, if he was given the opportunity of course.
And since Lucasfilm is planning multiple Star Wars projects after Abrams’ Star Wars: Episode IX hits theaters, there are plenty of opportunities for him to appear.
Considering how expansive the Star Wars franchise is, it’s hard to tell which character Lucasfilm considered Freeman before.
Regardless of which character Freeman was considered for, he’s certainly an actor that could do well in the Star Wars franchise.
