It is a time of great anxiety. The world awaits a film release of epic proportions, and even the most prominent entertainers in the galaxy are not immune to the mounting excitement.

If you ever feel too nerdy about your love of Star Wars (and why would you??), remember -- these celebs are right there with you.

Olivia Munn

Who's the bigger #StarWars fan...The one who bought this awesome shirt at @oldnavy or the one who already owned his own Obi-Wan Kenobi robe? A photo posted by Olivia Munn (@oliviamunn) on Dec 11, 2015 at 9:59am PST

The Force appreciates your love, Liv, but you lost this round. Then again, you win forever for rocking a Princess Leia bikini back in 2007.

Anna Kendrick

STAR WARS!!!!! Language and emojis fail to express what's in my heart at this moment.— Anna Kendrick (@AnnaKendrick47) November 28, 2014

Benedict Cumberbatch

No human can impersonate Chewbacca so perfectly unless he has been practicing his whole life. All we're saying is, J.J. Abrams is just a phone call away...

Tina Fey

We all know Liz Lemon seizes any available opportunity to dress up as Princess Leia, but that wouldn't have happened if Fey herself weren't a longtime fan. She even sported a tee endorsing Leia for president in 2008 -- maybe scribble over the numbers and bust that shirt out again, Tina.

Stephen Colbert

Colbert is a vocal fan of all things nerdy, so much so that he appeared in Peter Jackson's Hobbit movies. He's so invested in Star Wars that he basically spoiled himself:

Patton Oswalt

Apart from an improvised Star Wars filibuster on Parks and Rec, the comedian went on Late Night With Seth Meyers and discussed the optimal way to watch the first six films: The Machete Order.

Daniel Radcliffe

The Harry Potter star may have been late to the Star Wars party, but now that he's here he could not be more thrilled. He dressed up as Boba Fett on Ellen and was overjoyed to keep the costume, which we assume he'll be wearing to see The Force Awakens.

Michael Giacchino and Ben Schwartz

It's wonderful enough to know that these two are friends, but to see them reimagine the "Imperial March" for no reason other than their own amusement just proves that Star Wars brings people together in the most beautiful ways.
