10 Actors Who Have Played Multiple Star Wars Characters

Many of the actors on this list became initially famous in one Star Wars role, and were then brought back in some sort of cameo capacity. Either that or there just so happened to be a perfect clone of their original character that only they could ever play, again, more on Temuera Morrison later.

Silas Carson however, is different. In his first appearance in a galaxy far, far away, the English actor played no fewer than four roles. The Phantom Menace introduced so many new characters to the franchise, and apparently there just weren't enough actors to portray them all.

Two of Carson's four were very minor that you likely wouldn't even recognise the names. Lot Dodd, the Senator of the Trade Federation, and Antidar Williams, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan's pilot at the beginning of the movie were brought to life by Carson, but these roles were nothing compared to his other two.

Across all three prequel trilogy movies, Carson was one of the key antagonists as well as a Jedi Master, namely Nute Gunray and Ki-Adi-Mundi. He also returned to these two roles in 2022, voicing both in the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga video game.
