23. Who are the only two actors to appear in all six of the Star Wars films? Answer: The droids! R2D2 and C3PO, played by Kenny Baker and Anthony Daniels respectively, are the only two characters to have a role in all six Star Wars films. However, in Episode I: The Phantom Menace, we only hear C3PO’s voice because he has not yet been given his golden shell. In fact, Daniels found it so difficult to just do C3PO’s voice, he took over the puppetry of his character. Interestingly, Daniels also had to be talked into even speaking with George Lucas about appearing in Star Wars.
