‘The Mandalorian’ submitting Ahmed Best for Emmy consideration brings his ‘Star Wars’ journey full circle

Back when the Star Wars prequel trilogy released in theaters, it’s safe to say that most fans would have named Jar Jar Binks as their least-favorite character from the franchise. And the actor behind the CG creation, Ahmed Best, felt the full weight of that hatred. Disney is offering Best quite the do-over with a small role in The Mandalorian — and has even put the actor up for an Emmy nomination for his work.

On its Debut Disney website, the company has listed its offerings for Emmy consideration relating to the third season of The Mandalorian. Under the category of “Guest Actor in a Drama Series” is Best for his portrayal of live-action Jedi Knight Kelleran Beq. The character was introduced previously in Star Wars canon, but he returned in “Chapter 20: The Foundling” in a flashback as the Jedi who helped save Grogu from a burning Jedi temple.
