Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 10 Big Questions Raised By New Trailer
6. What Happened To Threepio's Arm?
It's already been seen in a still image (and in an advert for batteries of all places!), but this is our first proper, live-action, in-universe look at C-3PO in The Force Awakens, complete with his shiny new limb. Once again, and more-so here because it's the first time we've really seen it, what exactly happened to his arm? Was this before the events of The Force Awakens, or something that happens to him within the movie itself (it wouldn't be a Star Wars film without a little loss-of-limb action now, would it)? It's also interesting to note that he's with Leia at this point, suggesting the droid is very much working for the Princess (or Queen, or whatever title she holds now) in this movie - but R2-D2 doesn't appear to be with him.
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
