B.C. Premier John Horgan went to Twitter Friday morning and shared his encounter with world-famous droid R2D2 last week at the legislature.

The Star Wars superstar was in Victoria to help celebrate Creative Industries Week in B.C., a showcase for those industries from books to magazines, film and television, interactive media and music.

Provincial energy, mines and petroleum resources minister Michelle Mungall made a cameo appearance, as well.

R2D2 visited the Legislature last week, so we shot a quick fan video. Blame the jokes on my team, except for the Tauntaun one, I like that one. #MayThe4thBeWithYou Happy #StarWarsDay cameo: @michellemungall pic.twitter.com/ZcvhJuAJX4
