Apple Debuts New Commercial Starring Star Wars Fans

In celebration of the May 4th Star Wars holiday, Apple and Lucasfilm just dropped a new commercial for the iPhone 15 “Find My Friends Precision” feature. From StarWars.com:

Directed by Kim Gehrig and debuting in time for Star Wars Day, the clever spot follows a Mandalorian costumer (played by real-life fan Owen Jardiniano) as he journeys to meet up with friends at a local con. He starts off the day feeding his cat, Leia, and checking for the essentials (“Keys, phone, thermal detonator”), before heading out. He picks up a boba tea (naturally), grabs the bus, and uses his iPhone 15 to chat with and find his Mandalorian clan. Finally together, they share greetings and some in-sync head-bobs to Channel Tres’ “All My Friends,” with the lyric “5:02, past the curfew” changed to “5:01,” in a nod from the artist to the 501^st Legion fan group. Jardiniano and pals then blast off…up the escalator. (The commercial is also filled with Easter eggs, from the sign at the bus stop — “The first transport is away!” — to the “New Hope” street sign, so keep your scanners peeled.)
