Jar Jar Binks Actor Reveals How the Media Almost Cost Him Everything

Ahmed Best is finally getting his flowers after years of ridicule and it's the best non-Andor story to come out of Star Wars in years. The man behind the Gungan had come within moments of making a permanent choice to deal with a temporary problem and thankfully fate intervened. Post Episode 1, the Jar Jar Binks actor was left in a stupor, spurned on by the media all but blaming him for the divisive backlash to 1999's biggest film. Now during the second season of Light and Magic, Best gets his moment to shine and underscore how when life gives you lemons, you can stay bitter or make lemonade.
