The latest installment of the “Star Wars” franchise, “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” hits theaters Dec. 15.
This isn't the first time a big star surprised fans at Disneyland. In April, Johnny Depp donned his Captain Jack Sparrow costume and blended in with the animatronics on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.
