RIP Star Wars star Kenny Baker

 

Movies4Kids is very sad to hear the news of the passing of actor Kenny Baker, best known as the man who played R2D2 in six Star Wars movies, beginning with Episode IV: A New Hope in 1977 and ending with Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith in 2005. The 81-year-old actor also played Bungo in the Wombling Free movie, and appeared in such varied films as The Elephant Man, Flash Gordon, Time Bandits and Mona Lisa. Our sympathies to his family.
