One of the characters that has generated the most controversy in the entire Star Wars saga since its appearance is Jar Jar Binks. This Gungan, born on Naboo, was one of George Lucas' great additions to The Phantom Menace, designed to function as comic relief, although many agreed that, instead of pleasing, he was annoying with his presence.
Now, several years later, it seems that appreciation for the character has increased after the statements of his actor, Ahmed Best, who revealed how bad he had it throughout all this time. It seems that his return could be a reality; and it is not a leak or anything like that, but a photo of Best himself in the recording studio has been released.
Through his personal Instagram account, the American actor confirmed that he was returning to the franchise. Star Wars with a selfie in which he is seen wearing a suit to capture movements: “Just when I thought I was out, they put me back in,” Best commented on the photo, which in turn is a reference to a mythical scene from The Godfather 3.
In addition, he added two hashtags that, while they could be a clue about his new role, also sound like a joke to the community: #JarJarBinks and #SithLord. There is a theory in which this character ends up going to the dark side of the Force, but obviously it is a joke that was created many years ago and that gained a lot of fame through social networks.
In addition, Activision also adds in this series of hashtags, something that has left fans in suspense since it may have leaked a new game by mistake. Star Wars developed by this company. We don't know if he will exactly return as Jar Jar Binks, but seeing that he is using a motion capture suit, everything seems to indicate that the Gungan could be back in some unexpected series from the universe created by George Lucas.
