Watto

On playing Watto:
"I didn't have a lot of experience with big movies. The first day, I walked onto this vast set. It was the set on Tatooine with the Podracers, and it went on forever."

Joining the Star Wars universe is "so daunting at first. It's so huge that it's a little pointless being nervous. I just let go and tried to enjoy the whole thing, which I did. It was lovely working with such good and experienced people--it makes things so much easier."

Humourous memories of performing Watto:
Joking with George Lucas about a rumor going around the set that Lucas' physique inspired Watto's shape.

"When there are blue aliens and people with skirts and lightsabers and me in my shorts, it's pretty easy to figure out who to animate."

Time spent in the studio and on the set performing Watto: Unknown

Other characters played: None
