The 9-year-old actor [told E!’s Giuliana Rancic](http://www.people.com/people/package/article/0,,20972047%5F20978932,00.html) that Isaac, who plays Poe Dameron in the franchise’s latest installment, is his favorite character, and he thought the movie was “awesome.” Rancic confirmed with Tremblay that if he hadn’t been pursuing acting, he’d want to serve as a Jedi, and the two then [engaged in a lightsaber battle](http://www.bustle.com/articles/134662-jacob-tremblay-wins-the-golden-globes-red-carpet-with-his-epically-cute-lightsaber-battle-video) on the carpet. But Tremblay got a chance to really show off his lightsaber skills when he met Isaac at a Golden Globes after-party. Isaac took a break from celebrating his [best actor in a limited series win](http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/10/golden-globes-2016-oscar-isaac-show-me-a-hero) for _Show Me a Hero_ to take on his young fan in a lightsaber battle of their own. A24, the studio behind _Room,_ shared a photo of Tremblay and Isaac’s _Star Wars_ moment, and it’s just as cute as you’d imagine. > [](https://twitter.com/A24/status/686601010123567104) While Tremblay’s _Room_ missed out on the best drama and screenplay awards it was [up for](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/12/10/golden-globes-nominations-list-2016), his costar Brie Larson was named [best actress in a drama](http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/10/golden-globes-2016-brie-larson-room) at the 73rd annual Golden Globe Awards. “He came and tackled me afterwards, which made me cry a lot,” Larson said of Tremblay backstage after her win. “He’s probably dancing. Knowing him, he’s probably in a throng of Johnny Depp and Will Smith and Amy Schumer, like, starting a conga line somewhere.” _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/11/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-lightsaber-battle-golden-globes-after-party) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4175956/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-red-carpet/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4175956/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-red-carpet/"},"headline":"Oscar Isaac Played Jedi with Room’s Jacob Tremblay After the Golden Globes","datePublished":"2016-01-11T20:44:02.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:28:34.548Z","description":"The Force was adorable","url":"https://time.com/4175956/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-red-carpet/","keywords":["Newsfeed","movies","Star Wars topic","celebrity","Oscar Isaac"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7f1a9d4374c4a9c6/6988788d8e0601918c464134/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-golden-globes.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Dana Rose Falcone / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7f1a9d4374c4a9c6/6988788d8e0601918c464134/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-golden-globes.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"oscar-isaac-Jacob-Tremblay-golden-globes","caption":"Oscar Isaac and Jacob Tremblay attend InStyle and Warner Bros. 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards Post-Party at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angles on Jan. 10, 2016.","creditText":"Frazer Harrison—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4175956/oscar-isaac-jacob-tremblay-red-carpet/","name":"Oscar Isaac Played Jedi with Room’s Jacob Tremblay After the Golden Globes"}}]}] ```
