In the viral spot, two dads take turns doing their best impressions of Darth Vader, recounting his famous line, “Luke, I am your father” — heavy breathing and all — as they spoon-feed their toddler son. The one parent whose impersonation of the villain is clearly inferior resorts to making his best Chewbacca noises instead. The _Star Wars_\-themed soup cans are one of many products pegged to the premiere of _Star Wars: The Force Awakens_ on December 18. ### Rare Photos of George Lucas Behind the Scenes of Star Wars  George Lucas and Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) on the set of Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope in a galaxy far, far away.
