A time not too long ago in a country far, far away, Prince William and Prince Harry got a behind-the-scenes look into the filming of Star Wars: Episode VIII.

The royal brothers visited Pinewood Studios in London on Tuesday where the sci-fi sequel is being filmed and got the chance to play around with lightsabers, sit in a X-wings and even meet the galaxy's most lovable rolling droid, BB-8. Cast members Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Mark Hamill and director Rian Johnson were also at the studio for the intergalactic meet and greet.
