Күн бұрынAnthony Daniels, who most famously portrays C-3PO in the Star Wars series of films, sits down with WIRED to discuss, in detail, the variety of costumes he has worn while filming Star Wars. Anthony explains just how he was able to fit into the costume and what his thoughts were when he first saw Ralph McQuarrie's designs.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker is now available on Blu-Ray and Digital Download.

Glad I watched this, the man is a true poet and can't wait for his next performance.

It’s interesting that Daniels’ gesticulating emotion through the articulation limitations of the costume became a central part of the character’s seeming reticent attitude towards taking any rash actions. Some may have rejected such a stage limitation outright and given up. Yet this all contrasts with the character’s dialog of constant verbal siege on everyone else’s actions. This lent a complex and relatable wholeness to C3PO few robotic characters have achieved. The magic of theater, story telling, dreams and the human condition were wrapped up magnificently by Daniels.

Having gone in and voiced 3-P0 in every appearance since the original trilogy, including the various animated series' and even the obscure Droid Tales and Ewok adventure cartoons, Star Tours, etc., he's built up quite an encyclopedic knowledge of the story, the characters, it's quite impressive. He would probably do surprisingly well during a Star Wars trivia event at a Convention, with all he's been personally exposed to in that Universe. 👍
