Andrew Barth Feldman, currently starring opposite Jennifer Lawrence in Sony’s No Hard Feelings, is a huge Star Wars fan who has visited the Galactic Starcruiser and has ambitions to work as an actor on at least one voyage before it closes.
No one’s a bigger “Star Wars” fan than Feldman, who wrote a musical parody of “A New Hope” with his friend in eighth grade, which they later staged at New York’s 54 Below in early 2020. The actor’s Jedi-like dedication goes back to middle school, when he celebrated “May the Fourth” by dressing up as a relatively obscure villain from the prequel movies.
“On Star Wars Day, I went to school dressed as General Grievous,” Feldman says. “That guy is so weird-looking, and I had the full mask and Party City getup. And nobody else was dressed up! It wasn’t Halloween – it was just me.”
A couple months ago, he even pushed a camera test for another project so he could go to the Galactic Starcruiser hotel in Walt Disney World, where guests interact with “Star Wars” characters and help complete a mission.
“It’s the best immersive theater on the planet,” Feldman says. “I’m trying very actively to work as an actor on the Starcruiser for one voyage before it closes (in September). It would be a huge bucket-list item.”
