In a recent exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Sara — the actress best known for playing Sloane Peterson opposite Matthew Broderick and Alan Ruck in the 1986 teen classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off — said she was thrilled to learn that she'd be acting alongside Mark Hamill in the new movie The Life of Chuck. Asked if she was a Star Wars fan, Sara, 57, says, "I grew up in the seventies. Are you kidding?" "I couldn't believe when [director Mike Flanagan] told me that it was Mark Hamill [who] was going to play the grandpa, I couldn't believe it. I get to be married to Luke Skywalker. It's the greatest thing," she adds. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. While Sara tells PEOPLE she "tried" to be cool when she saw Hamill on set, she admits it was difficult. "We had so much fun actually. Because we knew we had just this little short moment, but we really had fun just trying to convey the loving relationship. And when it was over, we just thought, 'Oh, that's not enough. We want to do more,' " she says. Sara posed for photos alongside Hamill, Flanagan and costars including Tom Hiddleston, Benjamin Pajak, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Kate Siegel, Karen Gillan, Carl Lumbly and Annalise Basso at the film's Los Angeles premiere on June 2. The film is adapted from a novella written by Stephen King. Speaking to PEOPLE, Sara says she felt inspired to end her hiatus from acting to work with Flanagan, 47, and his wife Siegel, 42, citing the pair's 2021 Netflix horror miniseries Midnight Mass as "one of my favorite things I've ever seen." "We've been such fans, and we met socially, he and the magnificent Kate Siegel, and he just said, 'Well, don't you ever really want to work again?' " Sara recalls. "And I said, 'Oh, I don't know.' He said, 'Well, what if I offered you something?' I said, 'Well, okay, if you offer me something, I'll do it.' " The Ferris Bueller star's role in The Life of Chuck comes more than a decade after she last appeared onscreen in 2011's Dorothy and the Witches of Oz. In 2013, Sara appeared in a short film titled Pretty Pretty. Read the original article on People

Fox News' Trey Yingst Seeks Cover From Tel Aviv Missile Barrage During Live Broadcast: 'Time to Go'
Fox News' chief foreign correspondent Trey Yingst was forced to seek cover while live on the air in Tel Aviv on Friday while discussing the missile impact of Iran's retaliation after a war with Israel broke out. 'OK, there's just a massive amount of fire coming to Tel Aviv right now. Yaniv, get ready to pull it off the sticks. Get off the sticks. All right, let's go. Time to go,' Yingst suddenly told his crew as he was on the air with Fox News anchors Sandra Smith and John Roberts. 'OK, guys, come on. Everyone, move. Everyone, move now. Stay with us. Stay with us. Pick up the gear. Let's go,' Yingst continued as he and his camera crew drew back for safety while on a hotel balcony. The Fox News reporter was broadcasting amid a barrage of missile fire that rained down on Tel Aviv on Friday night, just as Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system attempted to intercept incoming fire.

We just saw one of the missiles. OK, and there's an interception right over Tel Aviv. Pull out here, Yaniv, and you're going to see the trail. Just listen here. OK, this is some short range systems,' Yingst continued as the Iranian missile barrage intensified amid sirens, smoke rising and missile trails lighting up the nighttime sky. Fox News' Roberts interrupted to remark the missile fire over Tel Aviv was unprecedented, and Yingst agreed. 'Yes, John, Sandra, you saw those live images. Israel is under a massive ballistic missile barrage. I have reported here for nearly seven years and never seen such an attack against an Israeli city. The amount of air defense that you saw going off there is — it's unprecedented. It appears that they are targeting some of the centrally located positions in Tel Aviv,' Yingst reported. The missile fire from Iran follows Israel's military attacks on Iranian nuclear sites and other targets the previous evening.
