This 'Star Wars' superfan blew his $400 tax refund on glamour shots with the cast

While McDiarmid didn't participate, he let Calabrese have his fun.

The actor turns 72 in August — still younger than his character, Emperor Palpatine.

Daniels complimented Calabrese's T-shirt, which depicted C-3PO and his counterpart, R2-D2, immediately. Calabrese didn't hesitate to ask, "Can I be your counterpart?"

"No one's ever asked me that, sure," Calabrese remembers Daniels saying.

He got on his knees so he would be appear much shorter, and Daniels — without prompting — placed his hand atop Calabrese's head. It was the perfect droid prom photo.

Unlike his smooth-talking character Lando Calrissian, Williams never uttered a word.

The actor turned 79 in April.

Don't recognize Ratzenberger? He delivered the line, "Your Highness, there's nothing more we can do tonight. The shield doors must be closed," to Leia in "The Empire Strikes Back."

Though he's not named in the movie, the credits identify him as Major Derlin. When Calabrese asked Ratzenberger to say the lines back to him, the actor appeared confused.

"I don't even think he remembers being Major Derlin," Calabrese says.

Ratzenberger's voice, however, is far more famous. He's voiced a character in every Pixar movie, including Hamm in "Toy Story," Mack in "Cars," and a crab in "Finding Dory."

Fisher left Calabrese the most starstruck. He was also the most nervous to ask Fisher for her cooperation, since the reenactment he planned was particularly zany.

As she went in for the side-hug, he popped the question: "Can you take my lanyard, and sort of, pretend to be choking me to death and I'll be Jabba?" Calabrese remembers asking.

She took hold of the lanyard and added a vengeful look to boot.
