So far, Anthony Daniels` character C-3PO has been in every Star Wars movie, including 2016`s Rogue One and all the main, numbered releases. Solo: A Star Wars Story is set before A New Hope, and after Revenge of the Sith, meaning it`s long after Anakin built the protocol droid. Threepio`s exact activities in between Episodes 3 and 4 aren`t necessarily known, so for all we know, he could have fit somewhere in the events of Solo.

Who does Anthony Daniels play in Solo?`During the Kessel Mine escape, the other Wookiee, whose name is Sagwa, has a human best friend,` Kasdan explained. `In the end, you see this moment when Chewie is torn between going with that other Wookiee, and going with Han. And then they press their heads together. And the person who is calling that other Wookiee to `Come this way!` is Anthony Daniels.`So that`s it. Really, it`s not actually that exciting, though we`re glad Daniels has kept his streak up. It does get slightly juicier, though, a ...
