10 Background Star Wars Characters With Ridiculously Convoluted Back Stories

1. Zuckuss

zuckuss star warsWhat you see in the films: Zuckuss, like IG-88, is one of the bounty hunters called in by Darth Vader to track down the rebels in The Empire Strikes Back. The only screentime he gets is in that lineup, and he speaks no lines. The expanded backstory: Where to begin. Other bounty hunters call Zuckuss "The Uncanny One". He's Force-sensitive. He had an epic bromance with fellow bounty hunter 4-LOM. He suffered from multiple personality disorder, and spoke in two different languages. He inspired an entire generation of bounty hunters from his homeworld of Gand. Oh, and between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, he was working for the Rebellion, actively trying to derail Boba Fett and rescue Han Solo. All that based on one scene and no lines.
