John, who plays Finn, said: “I think they took that scene out. I’ve had enough with those secrets. They came on set. They were there. I’m sick of hiding it. It think it was leaked, anyway.

“There were images. Every time I get asked, I have to dodge it. I’m tired of dodging it. They were there. So was Tom Hardy.

The princes visited the set in Pinewood Studios in April last year, where they chatted to crew, played with lightsabers — and befriended Chewbacca, being played by Joonas Suotamo.

Prince William admitted he was “a total geek” over the franchise, and he challenged his brother to a duel with lightsabers.
