It appears December's Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker will keep with the series tradition of featuring celebrities in minor or hidden cameos. A new "special look" video for the upcoming movie seemingly confirms that Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda and singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran will appear in the big-budget sci-fi film, showing them on the set of the final film in the Skywalker saga.

　　Miranda appears at around 53 seconds, and he seems to be playing the role of a rebel fighter. Sheeran plays a soldier for the Empire, as he can be seen at 55 seconds in a Stormtrooper outfit. Maybe they will meet up for a sing-off.
