The actor behind Jar Jar Binks, Ahmed Best, has hinted at his return for a project on Instagram - he used Activision as a hashtag, among others. A hint at a new Star Wars video game?
The return of Jar Jar Binks – for some fans, this moment should never come, while others celebrate Ahmed Best’s cryptic hint. “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in,” wrote the actor on Instagram and posted a photo in a motion capture suit. Fans liked the post thousands of times, commented
Darth Jar Jar?
This time, the leak about a possible new Star Wars video game comes first hand - and Ahmed Best must know why he is standing in front of the camera to have motion capture recordings made. Fans are calling for "Darth Jar Jar" and are looking forward to a return of the clumsy supporting character from Star Wars - Episode I: A Phantom Menace. It is rather unlikely that Ahmed Best will become the main character of a game - you would expect a lot from Jar Jar Binks, but not that.
From the hashtags that Ahmed Best used on Instagram, at least one conclusion can be drawn: For a Lego Star WarsHe will hardly be in front of the camera for the new game, as this franchise is in the hands of WB Games. However, the actor explicitly used "Activision" and "Jedi" as hashtags in his post. So Jar Jar Binks may be making a supporting appearance in a new title.
Another hashtag is interesting, namely "Kelleranbeq". This is a Jedi played by Ahmed Best in the series The Mandalorian. The character was previously unknown, but had saved Grogu (Baby Yoda) from Order 66 on Coruscant. In connection with the recent news that a video game for The Mandalorian is being developed by Respawn Entertainment - the makers of the Star Wars Jedi series – is in development, there is much to be said. However, these assumptions would in any case have nothing to do with Activision, because Respawn is under the management of Electronic ArtsAnd there is no good reason to do otherwise: According to recent reports, the development of The Mandalorian game has even been halted due to layoffs at Electronic Arts.
Ultimately, this is speculation, as there is no official information. Fans must have money at this point. Activision had not announced any Star Warsgame, so it's also possible that it won't be a full-price title, but a skin for Call of Duty Warzone. Here, both Jar Jar Binks and Kelleran Beq could be used.
