6. Kenny Baker
You might not recognize the diminutive 3 foot 8 inch actor by face, as he plays R2-D2 and is always hiding within the robotic cylinder. Baker has also had parts in films like The Elephant Man, Time Bandits, Willow and Labyrinth. Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker are the only actors to have appeared in all seven Star Wars films. Baker has admitted there has been longstanding animosity between the two actors, saying they have feuded for almost 40 years. Daniels once summed up Baker’s work with “he might as well be a bucket” and Baker has said Daniels is “the rudest person I’ve ever met.” Can’t these droids just get along?
