droid

If the space roaches don’t kill us, a malfunctioning, ticked-off droid might.

For the first season, Lucasfilm tapped Japanese anime studios for nine shorts, which featured a range of stories including those that centered an ex-Sith ronin, a Jedi Padawan turned lead singer of a rock band and even a Force-wielding droid.

The droid doesn’t have a face, just that George Lucas-designed chrome head that looks like a drawing of a Borzoi from memory.

The air around the droid is bullying it with colorful insults: tin skin, sparky, oil slurper, and, the lone jeer that’s canon, clanker.

Performing motion capture and voice-over, he was Sonny the emotional android in “I, Robot” and the dry droid K-2SO in both “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” and again in “Andor.”
