General
R2-D2 was portrayed by Kenny Baker in A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, The Phantom Menace, and Attack of the Clones. For Revenge of the Sith, Anthony Daniels has stated that Baker did not film any scenes; Baker himself said that he may have appeared as Artoo in a majority of scenes that were caught during production of Episode II, though he did film some bits and pieces. He has been credited as playing R2-D2 in the first six films. Baker served as a consultant on The Force Awakens, and Jimmy Vee took over for Episode VIII. Vee has also confirmed that he will reprise the role once more in Star Wars: Episode IX and that he hopes he could play the character beyond the sequel trilogy films. The droid's distinctive sounds were created by Ben Burtt.
