The force was strong in L.A. for “The Last Jedi” premiere, but we could also feel its presence right here in South Florida. The reason? Deco got a visit from a special VIP from a galaxy far far away.
The actors from “The Last Jedi” have been on an all out blitz promoting the movie.
John Boyega surprised fans at a photo op, Mark Hamill crashed a Disney ride, but one of the film’s biggest stars paid a visit to the WSVN studios — and I got to meet him. I mean … it.
Lynn Martinez: “Oh my gosh, BB-8! We’re so excited to see you. Come on in. Let me show you around.”
Lynn Martinez: “So BB-8, you must be so excited. ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ is coming out Dec. 15. I’m so excited, you must be to. Are you nervous about the reviews?”
BB-8: “Beep boop.”
Lynn Martinez: “Of course not, you’re amazing. You’re always amazing.”
BB-8: “Boop boop.”
Lynn Martinez: “You’re not nervous? Of course you’re not nervous. How long are you on Earth? Just for the premiere?”
Lynn Martinez: “All right BB-8, so this is my office. This is the News Plex. It’s where all the magic happens, but I’m sure it’s nothing compared to what you’ve seen in your intergalactic travels.”
BB-8: “Beep boop.”
Lynn Martinez: “I know.”
Lynn Martinez: “BB-8, what was it like working with Luke Skywalker?”
BB-8: “Boop boop.”
Mark Hamill (as Luke Skywalker): “This is not going to go the way you think.”
Lynn Martinez: “And Kylo Ren, were you scared at all?”
BB-8: “Boop boop.”
Adam Driver (as Kylo Ren): “Let the past die. Kill it.”
Lynn Martinez: “Oh my gosh, BB-8. Thank you so much for stopping by the studio. This has been an honor of a lifetime. You’re my favorite droid I’ve ever interviewed.”
BB-8: “Beep beep.”
Lynn Martinez: “You’re so cute. I can’t wait to see the movie.”
BB-8: “Beep beep.”
