Star Wars Actors Other Movies

Yoda Man

New Recruit
Does anyone know if any of the characters from any of the Star Wars films know if they were in any other top 10 United States highest grossing film? I can't think of any but it's a fun question to think about. See if you can find any.

Errr ... I could be wrong, but except for Yoda appearing in E.T. I don't think ANY of the characters from a Star Wars film have been in another film. ;)

The actors on the other hand may well have been, although I've no idea what the current "Top 10" is. Stretch it to the "Top 100" and you'll definitely have at least a couple.

Harrison Ford is probably the most likely candidate for the Original Trilogy , Indianna Jones and his Patriot Games character. With more well known actors like Ewan McGregor and Liam Nesson in the Prequel Trilogy, you may get a couple of them in the list too. Keira Knightley is another possibility since she seems to be becoming a popular and busy young star.

Someone told me Wedge (Denis Lawson) was in one but I can't find the answer. Do you think he was in Elliot's room as an action figure in E.T.?

Could be. There were some Star Wars toys in E.T, but I can't remeber which ones.

If you're going that route then images of R2-D2 and C-3PO were supposedly carved into the wall in one of the Indianna Jones movies.

A Darth Vader figure came to life in The Indian in the Cupboard, but that movie is no where near the Top 10 anything.

Yep, and yep. :)

Mark Hamill does lots of voice-work, including the animated Batman's Joker and one of the characters in the Wing Commander games.

Actually I heard that Mark did the original movie to make ends meet as he was trying to start up a voice acting career...

by the way, how's everyone like my av?

I think that was the point - it's a parody of the normal "image missing" graphic that web browsers display when they can't find the image. :)

Rena Owen (Taun We) - A.I.

she's the one outside of the wrestlemania/robot torture thing who picks up the bear and asks if anyone lost their toy.

It took me a while to find something that supported that. IMDB doesn't list that movies as one that she was in. but here is something that does.

I was just watching AI last night and noticed her. She only has a few lines and isn't on screen for more than a minute or two, but it's her.
 
I was goofing around in the archives and found this thread back in the beginning of 2003. It was full of interesting enough stuff and is a bit out of date so I thought I'd bump it up.

To get it started, I'll mention......

Ewan McGregor: Big Fish
