Alas, after a harrowing ten years, the new ‘Star Wars’ movie is finally here and we couldn’t be more excited. Turns out, Jimmy Fallon and his band are pretty excited too.
To celebrate the release of the intergalactic fantasy, Fallon and his band, ‘The Roots’ teamed up with the cast of ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ to create a rendition of the hit movie’s theme tune and as of yet, it’s probably the coolest thing on the internet. Harrison Ford even gets in on the mix.
If you’ve had a long day at work or you simply want something to bop along to, we can assure you that this rendition will knock your socks off. “We wanted to tell a story that had its own self-contained beginning, middle, and end”, director J.J Abrams tells Wired magazine. “The Force Awakens has this incredible advantage, not just of a passionate fan base but also of a backstory that is familiar to a lot of people.” Well, J.J, we think this rendition shows just how passionate the world is about ‘Star Wars’. It’s pure acapella goodness.
Check out Fallon’s rendition of the ‘Star Wars’ theme tune below and don’t forget to tweet us your thoughts at @Celebmix. May the force be with you.
