Love/Hate star Aaron Heffernan has told how he chased JJ Abrams down the street – after his Star Wars audition.
The TV star thought the force was with him when he spotted the Hollywood director strolling around London.
Earlier this year Aaron – whose cousin is model Thalia Heffernan – had auditioned for a role alongside thousands of other wannabes in Dublin.

But Aaron was disappointed when JJ “didn’t have a clue who I was”.
“I ran after him, chased him down the street,” he told the Irish Independent.
“I thought we could chat about light sabres and the force. But he didn’t have a clue who I was.”
