Star Wars Rogue One: 12 Most Awesome Moments

7. K-2SO Grenade Toss

Star Wars Rogue One K-2SO
Lucasfilm

K-2SO joins a long list of scene-stealing droids from the Star Wars franchise, but distinguishes himself from the competition by being a bit of a dick. He’s a reprogrammed Imperial droid, and a by-product of this tinkering means he says whatever’s on his mind.

His bluntness is milked for a few laughs, as is his laidback approach to violence. This is best seen in the moment he comes to aid Jyn and Cassian, and catches a grenade thrown by a stormtrooper while talking with them. Without looking he then throws it into a group of incoming troopers and finishes his speech while they blow up behind him.

K-2SO gets a couple of standout scenes throughout, but this is the standout of the standouts.

Handsome. Charismatic. Intelligent. Noble. Witty. I'm none of these things, but I'm a half decent writer, I guess.
