10 Major Star Wars Characters Who Didn’t Really Do Anything

7. Viceroy Gunray

Remember this weird looking freak? Despite being one of a number of characters that have been charged with conforming to negative racial stereotypes throughout the Star Wars films (see Watto, The Sand People, Jar Jar Binks; the list goes on), Nute Gunray manages to survive through the entire prequel trilogy simply by acting a bit pathetic and lumbering about as if he has a severely arthritic hip. His input amounts to being Viceroy of the Trade Federation then head of the Separatist Council both of which task him to do bugger all except talk in a wildly offensive Japanese accent with a face that resembles Voldemort€™s substantially uglier older brother. Gunray encapsulates the cornerstone of utterly purposeless movie characters. Good one, George.
