Other Character Info

"We will some new, even bigger monsters/creatures." - RC

"All the characters are moving to the way we first saw them in the Original Trilogy as far as look." - RM

In regards to new aliens and designs, the Art Dept out-did themselves and we will see a lot of cool stuff. -DG

One character is young, but not an infant. The character is brand new to the Star Wars story. -PH

We will see more of the younglings. -PH

We will see some cool new designs on medical droids. -RC

We will see additional R2 astromech droids in Ep3. - DB

One of the skipped droid designs from Episode II is slated to make a return for Ep3. -PH

It is doubtful that IG-88 style droids are in Ep3. -PH

There will be new and unique droids in Ep3. - DB

A bronze/copper astro droid will be Obi-Wan's R2 unit in his Jedi starfighter during the film. - OS

R4-P17 will return for scenes with Obi-Wan and will have a body added to the head seen in the Ep2 Starfighter. - OS

Plo Koon will have a brief appearance in Episode III, but the script requires very specific actions for him. - OS

Plo Koon and other Jedi will fly Jedi Starfighters. - OS

Plo does have scripted dialogue in Episode III, but there is no guarantee that it'll remain in the finished film. - OS

Pablo-Jill is a member of the Jedi Council. Kit Fisto may occupy one of the currently vacant chairs. Even Piell will be resurrected from stock footage, digitally treated to appear as a hologram. -OS

Ki-Adi-Mundi and Plo Koon are not in the Jedi Council scene as they are on a mission off-world. We will see their holograms during this scene. -OS

Slim chance on seeing Kit Fisto showing off his teeth (smiling) again. And his teeth have gone to hell. Seriously, he's got some pretty rotted chompers this time around. War is heck on dental care, apparently. -PH

In the script, some of the non-main Jedi have dialogue, even Plo Koon. But it remains to be seen whether their lines will make the final cut of the film. -PH

The fate of the younglings will be explained. -PH

Keisha Castle-Hughes will play the new 14yr old queen of Naboo. -OS

"Boba will be in Episode III, but his role definitely won?t be larger. He?s in a transition period of becoming a bounty hunter. The next film takes place two or three years later, so Boba would only be 13 and still wouldn?t fit in the suit." - GL

Daniel Logan's appearance on the set as seen on the webcam was just a social visit. -PH

Beru Whitesun (Bonnie Piesse) will appear in the film along with Owen. - RM

We will see wookiees in action and "it is something to see". -DG

At the end of the movie, the twins Luke and Leia are less than a month old. - RM

The infant twins will be bundled (wrapped in clothing). -PH

We will see who was born first, Luke or Leia. - RM

The infant twins are human babies and not CGI. - PE

One character is known as "Fire Ship Pilot" and will have one line of dialogue in the cockpit of a ship. - OS

The fire ship captain will be seen flying a fire ship and puts out a fire on Coruscant. The fire ships are the fire department. -RC

We will see a CG alien in the theater boxseats which is based on the "Coleman Trebor" species. -PH

There are no plans for another Vurk Jedi (Coleman Trebor's species) but a Vurk is seen keeping company with Palpatine at one point, during the theater scene. -PH

"Wat Tambor is back, and "badder" than ever ;)." - JK

Wat Tambor's role is about the size of his role in Episode II. -PH

Sly Moore returns but has no lines. -PH

The intent is for Oliver Ford Davies (Sio Bibble) to return. -PH

There are several new creatures in Episode III, some helpful, some dangerous. Though I will say, the helpful ones outnumber the dangerous ones. -PH

The Mon Calamari character's costume is completely different than the one seen ROTJ and "It looks great". - TB

The Mon Calamari character has no lines. -PH

Tears will be shed by at least one character. -PH

Aayla Secura returns for Ep3. -OS

Aayla Secura is not the new EU character in Ep3. The EU character will be a brand new one to the films. -PH

Aayla's role will not be bigger than that of Ep2. -PH

Nick Gillard's Jedi character cameo in the film is appropriate, given all of Nick's work on the prequels so far. The character will have a suitable name as well. -PH

Nick's cameo Jedi character has long hair and will be seen facing off against Anakin. -NG

Nick's Jedi character cameo is only a few seconds.  -NG

Nick's Jedi character's name is "Cin Drallig", his real name spelled backwards. -NG

Jedi Cin Drallig's cameo is seen via hologram. -NG

Nick's Jedi character does not have a yellow lightsaber and he does not fight with more than one saber. -PH

I fully expect there to be CG Jedi. Pablo-Jill may possibly return. I don't know of any plans yet for other alien types, but since a CG-Jedi would entirely be a product of post-production, it's still quite possible we'll see new designs. -PH

The character who speaks the classic line, "I have a bad feeling about this" is one that has not spoken the line before. -PH

Dominique Chionchio and Gervais Koffi will play Jedi in EP3. -PH

Returning Jedi not already mentioned include Luminara Unduli, Barriss Offee, Shaak Ti, Bultar Swan, Stass Allie, Saesee Tiin, Agen Kolar and Kit Fisto.

Shaak Ti is still on the Jedi Council. -PH

We will see Rodians in Ep3, specifically Dar Wac, Palpatine's aide from Ep2. -PH

Sola, Pooja, Jobal, and Ryoo Naberrie will return for Ep3. -OS

Given the nature of the involvement of Padme's family in Ep3, Pablo would be very surprised if their scenes were cut. -PH

Holly Stringer, Chantal Freer (Ell?), and Kristy Wright (Mote?) play three of the ten handmaidens. - OS

Blue Senate guards will return and will be seen on Naboo. They will be carrying silvery rifles at their sides in expressionless military form. - OS

Red Guards will return. -PH

Palpatine's Royal Guards "will do more than just stand there, but I'm hesitant to label it as action." -PH

Rohan Nichol is not playing Captain Wilhuff Tarkin. -PH

Senator Po Nudo and his aide, Passel Argente and his aide Denaria Kee, Senator Tundra Dowmeia, Poggle the Lesser, Wat Tambor, Shu Mai and San Hill will all return. -OS

Passel Argente will not have any lines in the film, but he will have a new look and will have on-screen closure to the character. Passel's aide Denaria Kee will also be seen in the film. -PH

Rena Owen (Taun We from Ep2) will play Senator Nee Alavar - OS

Bai Ling plays senator "Bana Breemu" and says she has a cool part and that we will be surprised by it - Bai Ling

Senator Bana Breemu's role is about as significant as the other brand new Senators that appeared in the casting announcements. -PH

"Senator Bana Breemu helps put Padm?'s mind at peace when she's in trouble." -Bai Ling

Christopher Kirby plays senator "Giddean Danu". The character has an "amazing and immaculate costume" and he has lines in the film. - Chris Kirby

Warren Owens plays senator Fang Zar and is part of the rebel alliance. One of the unique characteristics of the role will be his voice. - Warren Owens
