Star Wars is one of the biggest franchises in the world, and as such, it can boast an unparalleled cast of actors.

There are also plenty of famous names offscreen too. Executives like George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, and Dave Filoni are joined by directors, whether you love them or hate them, who have a huge say in the future and trajectory of the franchise.

But what about someone who does both?

Jon Favreau has arguably done more for Star Wars than anyone else in recent years, with the creation of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett ushering in an exciting new era for the franchise. But he has also appeared in the only Star Wars movie you could label as a flop.
