Jar Jar Binks (born c. 50 BBY) is a fictional character from the Star Wars films The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Named by George Lucas' son, his primary role was intended to provide comic relief, by way of his gangly walk and unique accent. Jar Jar was voiced by Ahmed Best. He is almost completely computer-generated. Although he was played on set by a costumed Best, Best was usually edited out and replaced by the animated character, except in some close shots where his face is not visible. The creation and modeling of Jar Jar Binks marked the first time that such a highly detailed, photo-realistic CGI character had interacted with live actors in a feature film. Director George Lucas and his effects team were quick to hail this as a major technical breakthrough.
Jar Jar Binks is a 1.96 m (6 ft 5 in) tall Gungan, with long ears and eyes mounted on stalks.
