Summary

Star Warshas included some unbelievable worker over its long history , and all six I ’ve met so far have been incisively who they seem to be . Star Warsmovies and TV showsare well - known for a number of things , but the franchise ’s beloved cast and character are certainly high on the list . Indeed , Star Warsis a enfranchisement built upon nostalgia , and many of the role player , especially fromStar Wars’best pic , are treasured amongStar Warsaudiences and have been for tenner .

Along with that ill fame make out perception of who those actors are outside their roles and opinions on how suitable they are for the characters they play . Thrillingly , many actor advert consequence like Fan Expos and Comic - Cons , which make it possible to get a good sense of that in person . Of the actors I ’ve met at such upshot so far , I’ve been shocked that all six perfectly fitStar Warsaudiences ' expectations of their personalities and their similarities to their characters .

Although Star Wars characters are often perfectly cast , 10 actor barter show just how well some character could have been trifle by someone else .

6Hayden Christensen Is As Kind As Everyone Says

First Appeared In: Star Wars: Episode II - Attack Of The Clones

While Hayden Christensen may play one ofStar Wars’most powerful Sith , he could n’t be less like Darth Vader in real aliveness . In fact , Christensen is well - known in the enfranchisement for being an incredibly kind and even easy - utter personwho really take his time with fans and wants everyone to feel include . He ’s also find as a dead on target lover ofStar Wars , and both things rang rightful when I meet him .

This is especially wonderful to see because Christensen did n’t have the easiest entry intoStar Wars . Although the prequel trilogy has become very dear over time , at first , it get significant backlash , and , unfortunately , much of that was below the belt point at Christensen . However , over time , Christensen has started to get the love he always deserved . Christensen has sure as shooting reciprocated in equal measure , reprising his persona as Anakin Skywalker multiple times now and always making time for devotee . In fact , Christensen frequently attends conventions and offer photo ops , autographs , and panels at most of them .

Christensen sincerely show how kind he is and how much love he has forStar Warsfans during FAN EXPO Philadelphia this year when a person in the hearing had a aesculapian emergency . Without hesitation , Christensen ( with Rosario Dawson close behind ) hop off the stage and have down on the floor with the person , hold off with her until the situation had been resolve . This is just one example of many of how much compassion and care Christensen exhibits , not only forStar Warsaudiences but also for people in general .

5Rosario Dawson Has Ahsoka’s Humor And Spunk

First Appeared In: The Mandalorian

Rosario Dawson might have been an Ahsoka Tano neophyte inThe Mandalorian , but she has peck up the part beautifully and full incarnate the character reference . In fact , while Ahsley Eckstein is the perfect match for young Ahsoka Tano , it ’s decipherable why Dawson was made for the older Ahsoka role . Dawson is funny , witty , and exudes a self-confidence that is fabulously befitting of Ahsoka inThe Mandalorian , The Book of Boba Fett , andAhsoka .

In fact , peculiarly now that Ahsoka is a full - fledge Jedi , coined ' Ahsoka the White , ' following her time in the World Between Worlds , Dawson is an even better set . fundamentally , Dawson impart a naturally cool melody to the character and , really , to any room she ’s in . This was on full display when she gave her panel at FAN EXPO Philadelphia , where she had audiences delight with her wittiness and magical spell .

Moreover , like Christensen , Dawson knowsStar Warsand her lineament indoors and out . Dawson even answered questions about Ahsoka by say " I " and referred to Christensen ’s Anakin in the same room . It ’s unclouded that Dawson has altogether embraced her persona as the eccentric , which is a beautiful affair to see .

Dawson knowsStar Warsand her character indoors and out .

Meeting her face - to - face was plain intimidating because she is such a star ( and plays one of the most beloved character inStar Wars ) , but she could n’t have been more down - to - earth and relaxed . In fact , for everyone who came into the room , Dawson act like they were acquaintances taking a photo together . There was nothing distant or superior in her fundamental interaction with fans ; she really could n’t have been more actual .

4Eman Esfandi Is The Real-Life Ezra Bridger

First Appeared In: Ahsoka

It is astounding how much Eman Esfandi truly is the actual - life Ezra Bridger . Although he may have embrace the live - natural process purpose follow the animated performance by Taylor Gray inStar Wars Rebels , which is the case for manyAhsokaactors , he somehow perfectly replicate Ezra ’s sense of humor , playfulness , and at time even goofy personality . Interestingly , this does n’t seem to be a performance ; rather , Esfandi very naturally match who Ezra Bridger is .

This was best on display during FAN EXPO Philadelphia this year . When Esfandi was explain his feelings about Ezra ’s Jedi Master Kanan Jarrus possibly returning in some course inthe upcomingAhsokaseason 2 , he became distrait by a massive Jabba the Hutt across the room , interrupting himself and encouraging everyone in the consultation to release and look at it . This minute of silliness was a perfect internal representation of who Ezra Bridger is as a character .

It ’s truly so laughable to see Esfandi embody Ezra so utterly , especially ease up he is direct up the chimneypiece from the voice actor . Interestingly , Ezra ’s time inAhsokahas been abbreviated , so it remain to be seen how he will develop in season 2 . For now , though , Esfandi is a dead ringer for the animated Ezra .

Moreover , it ’s very clear Esfandi knows his character in spite of appearance and out . Although he did n’t find out every singleRebelsepisode — it seems , in fact , Dave Filoni did n’t need him to — he did watch the indispensable Ezra Bridger episodes that Filoni ' impute ' to him . It ’s always a delight to find out that aStar Warsactor did n’t simply accept the part and read the lines . Rather , Esfandi , like manyStar Warsactors before him , rightfully did the work to understand the character and his story , and that work understandably give off .

3Ashley Eckstein Perfectly Captures Young Ahsoka’s Sweetness

First Appeared In: Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Rosario Dawson has definitely seize the older Ahsoka Tano , butAshley Eckstein is the original Ahsoka , and it ’s quite possible no one knows the role the way she does . Eckstein has remained highly knotty in the dealership , participating in events such as the fan - made Ahsoka Tano Day and keep a bearing on Instagram that is profoundly connect to theStar Warsfranchise . Eckstein also attend to an astonishing number ofStar Warsmeet - and - greets , from special Disney World and Disneyland sidereal day to various conventions .

Eckstein is also an incredible representation of who Ahsoka was during the Clone Wars Era . In addition to being stunned by Eckstein ’s part ( because it really made me find like I was meeting Ahsoka ) , I was pleasantly surprise by how much her sweet , fond temperament is standardised to Ahsoka ’s , specially when she was younger . Eckstein take aim her time with each sports fan who insert the exposure op space , and she made certain everyone matte they had metre with her . She also come up with numberless creative poses that embodied Ahsoka , and she hugged everyone as soon as they entered the space .

Truly , Eckstein is just how she comes across on societal spiritualist and during interviews . Her love ofStar Warsand connection to Ahsoka is copiously clear , and she wants each and every sports fan to sense as though they ’ve had a special experience . It ’s also fantastic to see that , even with Ahsoka proceed primarily to know - action ( with late exceptions such asStar war : taradiddle of the Jedi ) , Eckstein is here to ride out in theStar Warsfranchise .

Eckstein is precisely how she comes across on societal media and during interviews .

2Natasha Liu Bordizzo Has Sabine’s Charm And Wit

Like the otherAhsokaactors , Natasha Liu Bordizzo perfectly took her lineament , Sabine Wren , from living to subsist - action . This is especially impressive , as Sabine go from a immature Mandalorian to an elderly and shockingly somewhat Force - sensitive Jedi Padawan betweenRebelsandAhsoka . However , in yet another perfectStar Warscasting , Bordizzo take on the role and executed it wonderfully , bring Sabine ’s wit and sense of humor to live - natural process .

Bordizzo is also astonishingly similar to Sabine , although not obstinate or sarcastic in the same way . Rather , Bordizzo brings Sabine ’s charm in real life , and her subtle sentiency of humor in her panel withAhsokaco - genius Eman Esfandi and Diana Lee Inosanto delighted hearing atFAN EXPO Philadelphia , an event our team helped host asScreen Rantwas its sensitive partner . In fact , Esfandi and Bordizzo had a dynamic that was very reminiscent of Sabine and Ezra ’s in the show , playfully teasing each other but also sharing in jest and egging one another on in the best way .

1Diana Lee Inosanto Is Remarkably Humble Given Her Incredible Talent

Diana Lee Inosanto is the finalStar Warsactor of the six I ’ve met , and I was shocked to discover how lowly she is . Inosanto truly acted as though she was lucky to be there , despite her significant act chops . To that point , Inosanto trace how she was genuinely surprised thatStar Warswanted her for the role of Morgan Elsbeth , and her delight and appreciation for her comprehension in the franchise was copiously exonerated . Inosanto is , in that means , a perfect addition to theStar Warsuniverse .

ManyStar Warsactors have express similar skepticism , although they have more than make their place . However , this response is part of what makes the movies and TV shows so grand . That awe for their character causes manyStar Warsactors to play their all to their carrying into action , and it makesStar Warsseem like so much more than a job . Indeed , many actors fully sweep up theStar Warsfranchise , and it ’s perhaps for that cause that so many of them utterly fit the lineament they play and the world-wide perception audiences have of them .
