Star Wars: This Rey moment has gone viral – for a HILARIOUS reason

It’s from The Force Awakens, the 2015 movie that introduced a brand new generation of fans to the saga and revived interest amongst those who loved it in the 1970s.

Ridley’s Rey has left the planet of Jakku for the first time and, upon landing on a new planet, is awestruck by the sight of trees.

“I didn’t know there was this much green in the whole galaxy,” she says.

But whilst actually filming the movie, would Ridley have been looking at a vast new terrain? Nope – she would have been emotionally looking at a green screen.

Watch below.

Watching her say the line in an emotional fashion before the camera cuts to reveal the huge green screen in front of her is hilarious.

The moment has got 23,000 retweets at time of writing, having gathered 682,000 views.

The caption reads: ”How did they even film this scene without laughing”.

The Force Awakens, the seventh episode in the series, made a global star out of Ridley and also allowed Harrison Force to reintroduce himself to audiences as Han Solo.

Ridley returned for Episode 8, which came out last month on a sea of acclaim – but a divided audience response.

The Last Jedi has still managed to conquer the box office, however, and is on course for an enormous overall haul.

Star Wars 8: The Last Jedi is out now.
