  • Trivia
    He was not available to shoot his scenes as Sio Bibble in Italy for Star Wars Episode II, so when George Lucas filmed the factory scenes in England, he spent a day with him on Blue Screen filming his shots, and then put them together to make him look like he was there in the Naboo palace with all the other actors.
