10 Actors Who Made Sure They Weren't Seen In Star Wars

Zach Braff probably isn't among the first actors you'd ever expect to see in Star Wars, which combined with his extremely against-type voiceover performance ensured you had near-zero chance of spotting him in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series.

Braff provided the voice for Freck, a Condluran transport driver who crosses paths with Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and young Leia (Vivien Lyra Blair) on the planet Mapuzo.

And as much as Braff's natural voice is buried deep into the brains of anyone who spent a decade watching Scrubs, he's affecting a much deeper, more alien vocal tenor here which makes him totally unrecognisable in every which way.

As for how Braff of all people landed in the world of Star Wars? He won the part due to his friendship with director Deborah Chow, who directed him in the 2010 film The High Cost of Living.

And rather than simply contribute voiceover from a sound booth, Braff was actually on set while Freck's scene was shot, working with Chow and Freck's costumed performer, John Rosengrant, to ensure the mouth movements matched up with Braff's mode of speech.

Hilariously, many fans initially suspected the role was voiced by Seth Rogen, given the deeper intonation which Braff affects throughout the performance. Genius.
