Having seen him fight for his planet in Revenge of the Sith and years later grapple with Han Solo before hurling the Corellian out of a mud pit on Mimban in Solo: A Star Wars Story (to say nothing of how he tore through those guards on Kessel) we know the ferocity and power of Chewbacca, and StarWars.com take a look at the bane of all Mouse Droids and four other prominent sidekicks as they ask, which is the scariest?
5. Chewbacca
What’s not to love about Chewie? He’s a loyal pal, a sweet fuzzball, and he gives warm Wookiee hugs. Chewbacca may be a good friend of Han Solo’s, but he’s no friend of the Empire or First Order. To his enemies, Chewbacca is a warrior and a Wookiee to be feared. Everyone understands it’s not wise to upset a Wookiee, especially since they’ve been known to pull people’s arms out of their sockets. They may be buddies now, but when the two first met, Han was on the receiving end of the Wookiee’s anger. When Chewie gets angry, he becomes a beast. His soothing growl transforms into a monstrous roar. His long Wookiee arms can whip anyone around and with one body blow, it’s lights out for his opponent. Chewie is also a skilled marksman with his bowcaster, a destructive weapon that he’s customized himself. And when it comes to defending his friends, he will stop at nothing to protect them. He’s a fiercely loyal companion, but if you ever play holochess against Chewbacca, always let the Wookiee win.
