For many Star Wars fans, The Rise of Skywalker lives and dies by its unexpected breakout character, the teeny-tiny droidsmith known as Babu Frik. The character (voiced by Harry Potter\’s Shirley Henderson) proves instrumental in helping our heroes locate the Sith wayfinder, but before he was hacking into C-3PO\’s head, Babu was in the food-service industry. According to The Art of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (on sale next week), an early idea called for the story\’s protagonists to cross paths with an 18-inch alien \”directing traffic\” in the \”chaotic kitchen\” of a galactic speakeasy.
