Star Wars superfan Daniel Fleetwood has died, aged 32.

The terminally ill fan was given the chance to watch an early screening of Star Wars: The Force Awakens shortly before he passed away.

Daniel's wife Ashley previously wrote an emotional Facebook post earlier this month, breaking the news by saying: "To all our wonderful supporters, friends, family and awesome strangers: Daniel's final dream was just granted!!!

"Today the wonderful Disney and Lucasfilms made his final dream come true, in the amazing typical Disney way, they really do make dreams come true!"

Daniel was suffering from a rare form of cancer called spindle cell sarcoma, and was told he had two months to live in July.
