A Disney Executive Showed a ‘Real Lightsaber’ at SXSW
ICYMI: A Disney executive showed off one of the perks of his job at SXSW!
Disney parks exec. Josh D’Amaro took the stage at SXSW in Austin and activated a real working lightsaber! Now it didn’t cut through metal or do any of that REALLY cool stuff, but he pushed a button and the light blade appeared out of nowhere. See in the video below.
No word on whether or not these will actually be available for sale to the public, but D’Amaro said that they will be used as part of the interactive Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser experience at Walt Disney World in Florida.
