LOS ANGELES — Amy Schumer has had a pretty big week between the theatrical release of Trainwreck, two Emmy nominations for Inside Amy Schumer, and her raunchy GQ cover story featuring the comedian cavorting with Star Wars icons R2-D2 and C3P0 — but that last part may have landed her in hot water with the House of Mouse.

After impressionable Star Wars fans took to social media to decry the sexualisation of their beloved characters, the official Star Wars Twitter account made sure to let them know that Disney and Lucasfilm had no part in the racy photoshoot.

A studio spokesperson told Variety, “It’s not surprising that GQ would want to capitalise on the cultural cachet of Star Wars, but Lucasfilm and Disney did not authorise, participate in or condone the inappropriate use of our characters in this manner.”

GQ did not consult with Disney or Lucasfilm on the content of the shoot, a studio rep says, but because the photos are obviously parodying the iconic franchise, they’re covered under fair use. A source close to Disney admitted that there was no legal recourse for the parody — beyond social-media disapproval.

Despite the disdain from some Star Wars faithful, others were making like Salacious B. Crumb and seeing the funny side.

And with Trainwreck already on track to outperform box office expectations this weekend, Schumer will be laughing all the way to the bank — just don’t expect her to make a real cameo in a galaxy far, far away any time soon.
