Diego Luna's 'Star Wars' Dream: Why He'll Never Meet Jabba the Hutt

Why is Diego Luna Not Meeting Jabba the Hutt?

Everyone loves Diego Luna, and those who are a big Star Wars Fan will know him for playing Cassian Andor! That's a very cool character, especially in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story! And those same fans also enjoyed the awesome TV series Andor. Now, he might have had an even bigger Star Wars dream. That dream? It turns out that it's over for Diego Luna!

Did He Want to be in Star Wars?

  • Yeah, this dude was a total Star Wars Fan! It's been something that he was really dreaming of. But the big bummer - the dream didn’t work out!

Was He Really That Disappointed?

Luna has talked about this dream a bunch of times. The whole thing started a long time ago, he said! And this idea was that one day he'd get to meet Jabba the Hutt. It was really a big deal! But the sad part - he has to officially let it go! He’s said to everyone, even the Star Wars universe, "Let it go, Let it go" because this was never going to happen!

Why Won't He Meet Jabba?

No official plans to bring him to any story, not even one in the galaxy where he was already involved as a Star Wars actor. So Diego Luna decided to just stop talking about it and call it a day!

So Is That It for Diego Luna's Dreams in Star Wars?

  • It’s not the end! He just gave up on this one but is still out there making his mark on the Star Wars universe - which, honestly, is huge! That’s kind of awesome to think about. After George Lucas made it a massive hit in the late 70s - Episode IV, with its title Star Wars, and its release of Star Wars: A New Hope - Star Wars really went wild with more Star Wars movies, shows, even those video games! And now, with Disney on board and that crazy awesome series The Mandalorian! There is always a new chapter happening. And there are new TV series dropping every few weeks. The crazy Star Wars Universe keeps going and going!
  • Diego Luna even said "The world is so huge! It is endless". That was in a conversation with Screen Rant. He could still be part of the action even without the dream come true.
  • So who knows what else awaits! It really does make you wonder what will be next for the Star Wars Franchise, and maybe even what we’ll see from Diego Luna!

It's definitely awesome that Luna played a huge part of this franchise. It's amazing how he got involved. Everyone has some pretty big dreams about being part of that Star Wars Fandom, but Luna’s been able to walk right in and make his dreams happen!
