  • In last week’s episode of The Mandalorian, Best reprised his role of Kelleran Beq, a role he originated for a YouTube game show called Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge.
  • Beq arrived in a flashback sequence to explain to the audience how Grogu escaped the Jedi Temple after Order 66 was enacted.
  • Best is also known for playing the much maligned character Jar Jar Binks in Star Wars: Episode 1 – The Phantom Menace, a role that brought him a great deal of criticism and, in some cases, outright hate.
  • The actor’s heartfelt message to the fans serves as a thank you to those who allowed him to come back into the larger Star Wars universe as Kelleran Beq:
    • “Star Wars fans on social media, thank you so much for everybody who ever rocked with me! I am more of a fan than I am a person in these movies and I have always been and always will be.”
