Ghosted from 08/03/2021
Line of Duty has turned Adrian Dunbar into a household name thanks to his role as Superintendent Ted Hastings, but he very nearly could have been known for playing Leia Organa s adopted father in
Star Wars, if his role wasn t cut out.
The actor filmed for everyone s favourite prequel,
The Phantom Menace, specifically for everyone s favourite scenes in the Senate. Sadly for him, his scene was cut. LucasfilmDisney I got a tiny part, years ago. I was in this big, kinda intergalactic conference going on, I was standing in this pod. There was a couple of guys behind me wearing green pigs heads. It was a huge bluescreen shoot, I had to come out, say a couple of lines.
