10 Background Actors In Star Wars Who Got Themselves Noticed
7. Aurra Sing (Michonne Bourriague)
Much like Quinlan Vos, Aurra Sing is a character who originally made an anonymous one-off appearance in The Phantom Menace, showing up for literally around two seconds during the movie's pod-racing sequence.
But due to passionate fans begging to know more about the unique-looking bounty hunter, she was given a name and developed into a fleshed-out character in her own right.
As it turns out, she was initially created after George Lucas insisted that there be more distinct characters featured in the pod-racing sequence, with model Michonne Bourriague ultimately being hired to play the part.
Aurra re-appeared in the Clone Wars animated series, voiced by Jaime King, as well as numerous Star Wars comics, before it was revealed in Solo: A Star Wars Story that she had been killed by Tobias Beckett (Woody Harrelson).
That's quite the impressive amount of mileage for a character who appeared in a Star Wars movie for a mere blink of an eye.
