#ForceForDaniel Succeeds – Terminal Cancer Patient Daniel Fleetwood Sees Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Daniel & Ashley FleetwoodStar Wars fan Daniel Fleetwood has been living with a form of cancer that is expected to take his life by the end of the year, but he has been determined to fight it long enough to see The Force Awakens. Thanks to the combined efforts of Daniel, his wife Ashley, and social media support, Daniel’s wish to see the film before its official release has been granted.

 

Ashley Fleetwood recently revealed on Facebook that her husband got to see an early screening of the film thanks to support from fellow Star Wars fans and Lucasfilm themselves:

To all our wonderful supporters, friends, family and awesome strangers: Daniels final dream was just granted!!! Today the wonderful Disney and Lucasfilms made his final dream come true, in the amazing typical Disney way, they really do make dreams come true! Daniel just finished watching an unedited version of Star Wars: The Force Awakens!!! We would like to thank the awesomely talented JJ Abrams for calling us yesterday to tell us Danjel was getting his wish granted! We also would like to thank Lynne, Ben and Anahuac for coming to our home and screening the movie for Daniel. Lastly I want to thank ALL the amazing people who helped make this happen, thank you beyond words!!! May the force be with you all ‪#‎forcefordaniel‬ !!!!

We at Star Wars News Net are very happy to know that Daniel’s dying wish has been granted. We would like to thank J. J. Abrams, Disney, Bad Robot, and Lucasfilm for being gracious enough to present the movie to him – it really shows that the people involved not only have a huge heart for the saga, but for its fans as well.

 

If you are interested in helping Daniel’s family to pay for his medical bills, visit the GoFundMe page dedicated to it here. Since the #ForceForDaniel campaign started on October 28, Star Wars fans anticipating The Force Awakens have donated over $26,000 to the charity – more than doubling the $15,000+ raised in previous months.

      No. It said they showed him an unedited version – likely a rough cut.

      John Williams is still recording the score and there may be some other final sound or FX polishing going on before it’s finally done.

      Some films are worked on until just several days before release … barely leaving enough time to have copies of the film reels developed and distributed to theaters.

      If they cry about it publicly and act like they are owed sh*t because they’re dying then sure, they can have Dis/LF fly people out to screen a rough version of it for them too. Hell, why stop there, why not just have reps visit everybody and screen it for us all personally?

          Don’t get me wrong, I hope the dude lives far longer than projected, but flying people out to show him the movie because he cried about it publicly was BS.

        Kenn, warm thoughts to you, and good wishes for a happier life. I am sorry you are so angry, really. I am in no way sarcastic. I hear and respect your point about certain people getting special treatment, and how that isn’t fair. It’s painful, and alarming. But it’s not so bad as you think. We do our best to help people suffer less, and that’s all we can do. I wish you more pleasure and less suffering.

    Yay! As a lifelong (does 7 years old in ’77 count?) SW fan, who was also diagnosed with cancer at age 34 in 2004 (I’m so far… in remission Yay!!!) This just warms my heart. Cancer SUX!!! It SUX so hard people. Especially when you are young, like this young man, married, maybe wanting to be normal, start a family, have a full life, only to be told you have a fracking expiration date. It blows! It hurts! So happy he could experience what 99.9999% of us are going to enjoy by 12/18 here in the states (12/16 or 12/17 in other countries – so envious). He must be in pain at this stage, cancer hurts folks) he is such a huge SW fan, he is soooo young. This is good my fellow SW peeps! JJ and Lucasfilm and Disney, while they can’t do this for everyone, this is just so awesome!!!!

        Yes. Disney probably hates free publicity that showcases them in the best light possible and warrants coverage on major news channels. The PR team must be crying in pain people think Disney is caring and good and that the The Force Awakens is so anticipated is people’s dying wish to watch it. It’s a nightmare for Disney.

          Not selfish at all — It’s perfectly natural! 🙂

          Think of it this way: When you give a wrapped present to a friend, you are eager for them to unwrap it!
          You want to know they liked the gift! Ideally you *want to SEE* the expression on their face!

          No, not selfish at all.

    All this did was prove that public shaming of large corporations actually works. He should have made the request privately and KEPT it private. I have no sympathy for him whatsoever.

      Seriously? Hope you never get cancer. Im sure he was really glad he could use his extremely debilitating and painful terminal cancer for “shaming a large corporation.”: Just so he could see a movie a month before you. Get a grip.

        He shouldn’t have made a spectacle of it. He could have done it quietly and gotten the same things. Instead, he essentially forced them into showing it to him. As for me? I have cancer, which goes un-treated because I walked out of the Dr’s office after he told me. Doesn’t mean I should get special treatment from movie studios or anyone else for that matter. I’m glad he got to see it, it’s the way he went about it that I have problems with.

          Some people care more about people than about multi-billion dollar corporations. It’s weird you feel so much compassion for Disney being seemingly forced to do something than for the fact this man will die and leave his wife a widow.

          I bet you are from the United States, where corporate brainwashing has gone so far people have no empathy for people, but feel hurt on behalf of corporations.

            I don’t feel compassion for Dis at all. It has nothing to do with compassion for ANYONE. It has to do with him going about it publicly and putting them into the position where they essentially HAD to show it to him. Think about the backlash it would have caused had they denied him? He shouldn’t have USED his illness to put ANYONE in that position, corporation or individual. If he had been doing the same thing to an individual to get something of theirs for free would that be right? No it wouldn’t. He SHOULD have done it privately. He COULD have done it privately. He CHOSE to make it a public spectacle. Therefore he IS open to criticism on what he did and how he did it. Having cancer doesn’t mean that he can do no wrong.

            It’s clear you have compassion for anyone.

            But even being a jerk, you can be smart.

            Disney is probably thrilled at the free publicity.

            By the way, it’s not your place to say what people should or shouldn’t do. This man is fucking dying. Good for him that he managed to leverage one good thing out of a disease that is killing him so young and making his wife a widow.

            And you can bet no one at Disney is complaining of the coverage they are getting. It’s a win-win for everyone.

    Awesome! As someone who has lost several close family members to the Big C I am very happy for Daniel. To those saying this was a publicity stunt, shame on you. Get back under your rock.

    The fact tat you’re deleting comments that discuss the problems with what he did is sad. You’re actively stifling constructive conversation in a place where previously, debate and conversation has been supported and encouraged.

      Because your a troll. We get your point. You didnt like the fact he used public influence to see TFA early. We got it. Move on.

    JJ, Kennedy and everyone at Lucasfilm and Disney handled everything like a class act. What an awesome thing to make someone’s dream come true when they are in such a terrible situation. Heart warming!

    Wow… I’m generally pretty stoic about things like this. I feel happy/sad/frustrated, etc. but it never really affects me physically. I kind of teared up reading this though. Pretty awesome.

    I am so happy to hear that he got his wish granted from Lucasfilm and Disney. I am so proud of the Star Wars Fan community in helping to make Daniel’s wish come true. I wish Daniel’s family hope and strength to get through this trying time in their lives. I wish for a science miracle for Daniel to extend his life.

    That’s awesome for Daniel. I really hope he will overcome the sickness, I wish him and his family faith, because with God nothing is impossible! God bless

      It’s very nearly done with only 40 days left. Only a few effects shots and a final sound mix would be different in the final theatrical version.

    That is fantastic and really shows the generous and humanistic nature of everyone linked to the Star Wars universe – so glad that Daniel got to see it.

    This wonderful news! Disney & Lucasfilm you are AMAZING. Good for you Daniel 🙂 I applaud them for doing an incredible deed such as screening The Force Awakens. You have a powerful message to carryover into the universe

    It’s all good but it opens up the can of worms. 1: are all dying people now granted to see Star Wars in advance. if not 2: Why is only this guy granted it but not some other dying person?

      So if you can’t make every dying Star Wars fan happy, you shouldn’t do it at all? You’re opening a can of worms…you really don’t need to…

      What other dying with short span to live wants to see TFA before they die? Make it viral if you know someone.

    It’s things like this that really brings me joy. We all have conflicting political views and other things in our lives that could get us to clash with each other… but our love for Star Wars has brought so many of us together that wouldn’t have otherwise. Supporting someone like Daniel with his wish, and seeing Lucasfilm supporting him as well just makes me feel proud. Rarely do I ever feel emotionally moved by an article, but this one has done it for me. Keep being awesome my friends. 🙂
