At Celebration Europe in 2016, Daniels took the couch on the main stage with the main stage host Warwick Davis (Wicket in Return of the Jedi). Currently, Daniels isn’t scheduled for any such events at this year’s Celebration. But there is still almost four weeks until April 13, the first day of Celebration in Orlando. That’s time enough to announce his presence on a panel. Daniels may even make a surprise cameo during The Last Jedi panel on April 14.

Star Wars Celebration 2017 is Riz Ahmed’s second Celebration. His first was Celebration Europe in 2016, where he attended the Rogue One panel with the rest of the main cast of the film. Since the standalone Star Wars movie’s premiere, Ahmed and his character have become beloved members of the Star Wars family. Ahmed is also a potential candidate for hosting a panel, like Gwendoline Christie (Captain Phasma) hosted the Rogue One panel last year.
