Darth Vader actor swaps Hollywood stardom to become a window cleaner in Rhyl

Star Wars ' Darth Vader star Spencer Wilding wants to return to window cleaning as his acting work has dried up.

The Hollywood movie actor, 48, said the coronavirus pandemic has broken the industry.

And the dad-of-three said it is now time to “go back to my roots”.

The Welsh star even joked that if he scrubbed panes as the Star Wars baddie “he could just use the force and they would all be cleaned!”

He added: “The acting has been put on hold and if I need some work I can go back to cleaning windows.

“I’m not above all that.

“I don’t feel I would be lowering myself if I went back to cleaning windows.

“I used to have a massive window cleaning round and I need to do something to bring the money in.

“I have two teenage sons, as well as a 27 year-old daughter, and it would be good to set up a company for them to take over one day.”

Spencer played Vader in 2016 flick Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

He has also starred in Harry Potter, Guardians of the Galaxy and hit telly series Game of Thrones.

But the ex-pro kickboxer said he still thinks about washing windows or being a doorman.

“I love people, love being around people, and if someone needs their windows cleaning, I could do a good job.

“People in Rhyl and North Wales have always backed me and they might see ‘Big Spen’ going up and down ladders cleaning their windows again.

“Or I could go back to working on the door.

“I was a good doorman. Parents would ring me up and say: ‘If you’re on the door I know my kids will be safe.’”
