Bill Hader will no longer autograph Star Wars items
“I won’t sign stuff like that anymore, autograph-hunting people hate me now. Do you know when it all started? When at 3 in the morning a little boy approached me to get an autograph on BB-8 merch. I had been at the premiere of Inside Out, it was the middle of the night and I had noticed that a guy had been carrying this baby with him the whole time. It was clear that he wanted to use it as bait and then sell it online. I was pissed and so I decided that from then on then I wouldn’t have signed anything anymore”.
Bill Hader then explained that, although JJ Abrams has months in the credits of the production, he actually did very little: “It’s super nice that JJ Abrams mentioned my name, but I came in and made some rumors that just didn’t work. Then he called me back afterwards and said Hey do you want to do this. It was kind of… talk box and I did”.
