First Stars For 'Star Wars Celebration' Los Angeles Announced

Star Wars

May 2

Star Wars Celebration is heading to Los Angeles to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Now, the first celebrity guests who will be seen during the event have been revealed. Hyping the event up before tickets go on sale May 6.

From the films, it should be no surprise that Anthony Daniels is heading to Los Angeles. He has always been a wonderful presence during them, celebrating his many years playing C-3PO. Another familiar presence at Celebration, Ian McDiarmid will be coming to Los Angeles next year. The Emperor first graced screens in Return of the Jedi, appearing across the prequel trilogy, then making a return in The Rise of Skywalker. Of course, you can’t have a master without an apprentice, with Hayden Christensen also confirmed to be at this Celebration. Debuting with Attack of the Clones, he has since made appearance in the live action series Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka.

Fans of animated series will know this next one as the voice of a million faces. Dee Bradley Baker personalised the clones in The Clone Wars, continuing to voice them across other projects such as Rebels and The Bad Batch. Speaking of The Bad Batch, Clone Force 99 isn’t complete without their adopted sixth member. Joining Baker is Michelle Ang, who voiced Omega in the series.

With tickets going live this week, more announcements and rumours for what to expect from this next Star Wars Celebration are sure to happen right up to the start of the event on April 1-4, 2027, at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
