Ahmed Best, known to most as Jar Jar Binks in the Star Wars prequels, The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith, has started a video blog chronicling the creation of his one man show. The show’s focus will be about being Jar Jar, and all the ups and downs that entailed. Best recently revealed the toll backlash against the character, and by extension himself, took on his emotional well-being and outlook on life. It’s deeply personal, and we appreciate Ahmed sharing this with all of us.
The first installment of his vlog is now up on his YouTube channel. His announcement can be seen in the tweet below:
