Famed “Star Wars” actor Anthony Daniels has revealed in a new Instagram post that he’s slipped on a full mo-cap outfit to reprise his iconic role of protocol droid C-3PO.
Daniels is currently at Ealing Studios in West London filming, but doesn’t offer any further details beyond this mo-cap suit and that he’s playing the C-3PO role – a part he has played for over 45 years.
The most likely possibility is he’s filming “Star Wars: A Droid Story,” an animated Disney+ special featuring C-3PO and R2-D2 that was announced in late 2020 and is in the works at Lucasfilm Animation and ILM.
Further details about the special, including any other potential casting, are under wraps.
