Han. Chewie. Lando. And you?Friend’s Mothers 4
A Star Warscharity contest, unveiled with great fanfare on Good Morning Americaon Tuesday, offers fans -- among other prizes -- the chance to appear in the untitled Han Solo movie, currently filming in Pinewood Studios just outside London.
SEE ALSO: What should the Han Solo movie be called? Here are the best options.Star Wars: Force For Change, Lucasfilm's collaboration with UNICEF, is running several iterations of the contest over the next four weeks.
Prizes also include tickets to the world premiere of The Last Jediin Los Angeles this December and its exclusive VIP after-party, and a screening of the original Star Warsat George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch in Northern California.
Fans can enter here between now and May 11.
The contest is all part of the celebration around the 40th birthday of the original movie, which exploded onto screens across the U.S. on May 25, 1977. (The Han Solo movie is set to arrive on May 25, 2018.)
"In a year that we celebrate 40 years of the Star Warssaga, I continue to be inspired by the incredible generosity and charitable efforts of our fans," Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy said in a statement. "We hope this year’s Force For Change campaign will offer a few of those wonderful fans an experience they will never forget."
To date, Force For Change has raised $9 million; UNICEF says the nutrition programs it has funded have saved the lives of more than 30,000 children. This year the program made a $1 million donation to kids' hospitals in the U.S. via the Starlight Children's Foundation.
The first Force For Change campaign, in May 2014, offered fans a role in what later became known as The Force Awakens.
You may recall the unveiling video, in which J.J. Abrams offered the world its first peek at the set of the planet we would later know as Jakku.
The winner of that contest? One D.C. Barns from Denver, who became immortalized as "bar patron" in Maz Kanata's cantina.
He also got to walk into the Millennium Falcon -- and as you can see from this video documenting his trip to the set, his first instinct was to walk right out again. Too many feels.
Best of luck to all fans hoping to follow in Barns' footsteps and enter the Falcon cockpit. Just remember that Lucasfilm cameras will be there to document every moment, whether you dance around with glee or become a hot blubbering mess.
To quote what Han said to Chewie in The Force Awakens: You're home.
