He is the only character to be portrayed by the same actor (Anthony Daniels) and appear in all nine of the core Star Wars films.
R2-D2 is the only other character to be in all nine films, but his original actor (Kenny Baker) died in 2016; Jimmy Vee subsequently took on the role. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why is there even an actor inside the R2 plastic can? Have they not heard of remote controlling?

Even if it were, ANH's budget was so low that it was cheaper to have a little person actuate R2's movements than to spend money on mechatronics on a film that no one was sure would succeed. After ANH's box office success, it just became tradition to have a little person play the role. --- Hmm... ... Copied to Clipboard!

I feel like his voice changed after the original trilogy. Almost like he started falsettoing or something.

They need to insert palpatine in ANH so he can have that honor too.
