In a new interview with ET‘s Ash Crossan, Rebel Moon Star Charlie Hunnam reveals he auditioned for the role of Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and even got as far as meeting with George Lucas.
“I had forgotten that until you said that, but yes I did. Years and years ago, I met George Lucas,” Hunnam told Entertainment Tonight. “I got to the point where I was meeting George Lucas, which…I don’t think he meets a lot of actors. I think it was maybe two, three actors they were considering. I don’t remember much about it. I remember that I was nervous, and I was a little bit awkward and I just remember walking out and thinking, ‘Well, I’m definitely not getting that role,’ and I was correct.”
Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire is out now.
