AHMED BEST INTERVIEW
The actor reveals how he made the move from Jar Jar Binks to Jedi Master for Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge.

Ahmed Best first became a member of the Star Wars family when he signed on to play Jar Jar Binks in the prequel trilogy. Binks might not have been a bombad Jedi, but Best’s new character in Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge certainly is.

Insider catches up with the actor to talk about the exciting and fun Star Wars Kids series, and to look back on his time as the clumsy Gungan.

VADER REALITY
We go behind the scenes at ILMxLAB to discover how the award-winning VR experience Vader Immortal was made.

ILMxLAB’s multi-award-winning VR experience Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series offers fans the opportunity to step inside the world of Star Wars and go toe-to-toe with the Sith Lord himself – by way of VR headsets Oculus Quest, Oculus Rift, or PlayStation VR. Executive creative producer Mark S. Miller and Director Ben Snow reveal how the project came together.

The voice of Ahsoka Tano discusses reprising the character for the final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Ashley Eckstein talks exclusively to Insider about returning to the role of Ahsoka Tano in the seventh and final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008-14, 2020) and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019). Plus, she reveals the quote that has become her personal motto.

E.K. JOHNSTON INTERVIEW
The author behind the hit novels Queen’s Shadow and Queen’s Peril on creating perils for Padmé.

For E.K. Johnston, relating the adventures of Padmé Amidala in two smash hit novels has been a dream come true. Star Wars Insider asks how the author combined galactic and teenage drama through the lens of a galaxy far, far away…
