33. Did You Know: Star Wars is often a family affair. Mark Hamill’s son appears in Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Nathan’s role is that of a pod racer then a Palace guard, although he is not credited in the film. Ewan McGregor, who plays Obi Wan, grew up with Star Wars in his blood. After all, his uncle Dennis Lawson played Wedge in Star Wars: A New Hope. George Lucas’ children, Jett and Katie, also appear in Episode II: Attack of the Clones.
