David Prowse, the 79-year-old, former bodybuilder, who wore the Darth Vader costume in the Original Trilogy of
Star Wars films, revealed he is now battling dementia. He says he would have loved to have joined the cast of the new film, "even if it was just a cameo,"
but he says, his medication is not helping, and he often can't remember things he did the day before.
