VOICE OVER: Dan

This iconic “Star Wars” character is arguably the oldest and wisest Jedi master in the franchise, and he made his on-screen debut in 1980's “The Empire Strikes Back.” Though the idea for this memorable character came from George Lucas himself, his look was imagined and developed by legendary film make-up artist Stuart Freeborn, going on to become a mainstay of popular culture.
