10 Actors Who Have Played Multiple Star Wars Characters

Warwick Davis has a history of playing multiple characters in the same movie franchise. Thanks to the heavy make-up effects, the English actor was able to portray both Professor Flitwick and Griphook the goblin throughout Harry Potter, but that is nothing compared to his Star Wars career.

It would almost be too much effort to list every Star Wars movie Davis has appeared in, but here goes anyway – Return of the Jedi, The Phantom Menace, The Force Awakens, Rogue One, The Last Jedi, Solo: A Star Wars Story, and The Rise of Skywalker.

That’s an astonishing 7 out of the 11 Star Wars movies to date, across which he has played ten different characters, starting all the back in 1983 when he portrayed Wicket the Ewok at just 13 years old.

Even outside the movies, Lucasfilm has utilised Davis. In the fourth season of Rebels, he played Rukh, one of Grand Admiral Thrawn’s bodyguards, and if his history with the franchise is anything to go by, it’s highly unlikely he won’t feature again in the future.
