At the London premiere of Man Up in London, Pegg was asked about his rumoured role in the next Star Wars movie, telling The Sun "I wasn't a Stormtrooper. Daniel Craig, he was a Stormtrooper."
Pegg quickly retracted his comments, saying "I shouldn't have said that.”
Recently Craig has been filming Skyfall follow-up Spectre, which will also star Ralph Fiennes as M, Monica Bellucci, Christoph Waltz, Andrew Sctott, Naomie Harris and Ben Whishaw.
In other Star Wars news, director JJ Abrams has said Jar Jar Binks is going to be killed off ‘uncerimoniously’ in the new film.
