WWE Superstar Sheamus recently did an interview with The National in the United Arab Emirates, and he addressed the rumors he would be in the new Star Wars film.Sheamus said the following regarding the rumor:

Basically I went home to Ireland and the crew were filming quite close to me at the time, then all these mad rumours started flying around. I definitely haven’t received a contract, a helmet or a lightsaber yet, but who knows? It might come through the door. I hope it does.

Sheamus also said he did play Darth Vader in a Kellogg’s promotion back in 1999 for Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

While he doesn’t have a role in Star Wars’ Episode VII, he was in Rupert Wyatt’s 2008 thriller The Escapist and as a Celtic warrior zombie in the 2009 film Assault of Darkness.
