Simon Pegg was among the celebrities who got to cameo in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and he was unrecognizable as Unkar Plutt.
Simon Pegg appeared on The Graham Norton Show to help promote the upcoming release of Mission: Impossible – Fallout, but the conversation, as all conversations eventually do, turned to Star Wars.
The Jakku scenes, however, were filmed in the deserts of Abu Dhabi, so the temperature was closer to 122 degrees.
Not exactly the most delightful of filming conditions.
