Disney gives a dying fan and his family an early screening of 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker'
One Star Wars fan got to see the upcoming final film to the Star Wars saga. Disney CEO Robert Iger confirmed on Twitter that a British man with a terminal illness got to see Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker a few weeks ahead of its premiere. Rowans Hospice, in Hampshire, England, shared an image of a Disney representative who brought the film. The organization takes care of patients with life-limiting illnesses. Not much is known about the patient because he did not wish to be identified. But the whole thing started when Rowans Hospice employee Lisa Davies saw a Star Wars tattoo on the man's leg.
The patient saw the film with his two sons, wife, and two brothers. All of them had to sign a non-disclosure agreement before watching the movie on an iPad.
