On Apr 16, 2015 A video on youtubed was uploaded by the user “oskararnarson” The video was called “Matthew Mcconaughey’s reaction to Star Wars teaser” What this video showed was the scene where Cooper(Matthew Mcconaughey) where he is in space watching the videos sent by his family, however in the video rather than showing the videos sent by his family the editor of the video put the Star Wars trailer making it look like he was reacting to the trailer rather than the messages.
