Jimmy Fallon and band The Roots join Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Gwendoline Christie and Lupita Nyong’o for an a cappella tribute to Star Wars.
The Tonight Show rounded up nearly the entire cast of Star Wars: The Force Awakens to join Jimmy Fallon and the Roots in an a cappella medley that revisited the unforgettable themes and leitmotifs from John Williams’ original trilogy score.
Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Gwendoline Christie, Lupita Nyong’o, Carrie Fisher and, at the end, Harrison Ford were assisted by a gaggle of Stormtroopers (played by the Roots), androids and Chewbacca for the performance. The medley jumps from its iconic “Overture” to “The Imperial March” to the “Cantina Song” to a rousing finale.
