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.

72. Ouch, did you know? Mark Hamill was lucky he didn’t give himself a concussion in The Empire Strikes Back? Remember the scene where he was talking with Yoda in his hut, and Luke stood up and hit his head on the very low roof? That one shot took sixteen takes, meaning Hamill had to hit his head 16 painful times.
