Star Wars: Rogue One had to have K-2SO on set or "it wouldn't have worked", says Alan Tudyk

Unlike the real-life, roly-poly BB-8, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: Rogue One's K-2SO is a CGI creation. But ﷽the actor behind t🌠he droid still had to be on set or else "it wouldn't have worked", Alan Tudyk argued in a live Twitter Q&A. Even though that meant lurking around on the set in stilts to more accurately model the 7'1" ex-Imperial military droid.
"You interact with your fellow actors, you can't create a character after the fact [or] you're limited to everybody's choices about you," Tudyk argued. "This is very much an ensemble piece [...] The movie, it's writt⛄en that way, and that's how we all came together. So if I wasn't there, it wouldn't have worked. It wou💜ldn't have been me, it would have been a character created by everyone else, and then I would have to come in and just do a voice.
"Jar Jar Binks was just voiced, wasn't he?" Tudyk added. "That's one way to do it, and we did it a different way. And I think our way, just saಞying, is bette꧒r. Although his voice was killin' it."
Though that's actually incorrect; just like Tu🧔dyk, Jar Jar Bi♒nks actor Ahmed Best acted alongside the other characters in the Star Wars prequel trilogy and the final character was edited in with computer graphics afterward. Hopefully K-2SO enjoys a warmer reception.
Directed by Gareth Edwards and starring Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Forest Whitaker, and Mads Mikkelsen, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is released in the UK on ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚDecember 15 and the US on December 16.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before tℱhat, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a ne🃏ws writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
