The actors behind C-3PO and Chewbacca reflect on StarWars ahead of the release of TheRiseofSkywalker
LOS ANGELES - “Star Wars” actor Anthony Daniels has portrayed the fretful droid C-3PO in ten movies over 42 years. His next appearance hits global theaters on Thursday in “The Rise of Skywalker.”
Daniels and Suotamo spoke with Reuters about their characters, their costumes and trying to wow former co-star Harrison Ford. The following are edited excerpts. Daniels: I didn’t understand anything apart from the fact that I really liked C-3PO, the character I was being offered, and I took it. And he was just a character that seemed to have a different quality from the humans, the princess, the heroes, Luke Skywalker, all that.Daniels: We had no faith in it at all. George Lucas just pushed it all forward and kind of ignored our little sniggers and so on. And now, huge kudos to him all these years later.
