Personal Quote:
I started out Ice skating with 'Holiday On Ice' and just got offered the part of R2 by chance. See more »Trivia:
Kenny Baker along with fellow 'Star Wars' actor Anthony Daniels -- or rather their droid costumes -- had their footprints pressed into cement on August 3, 1977 at the famous TCL Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California. Reportedly, Anthony Daniels was actually inside his C-3PO costume, but R2-D2 was remote-controlled by Mick Garris. See more »Trademark:
