Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge doesn't just want to look like a movie set. It wants guests to feel like they just stepped off a transport ship onto a planet thousands of galaxies away. Disney's newest theme park extension opens in Anaheim, California Friday and fans aren't the only ones getting into the spirit of "Star Wars." To ensure a truly immersive experience on the planet Batuu, Disney has enlisted its finest cast members — some 1,400 people — to imbue the thriving port with life.
