In this special edition of Byte on Star Wars, Tony explores the galaxy far, far away through the creators who shaped it—some celebrated, some overlooked, all essential to the saga’s enduring magic.

This episode brings together three remarkable voices whose work spans the earliest days of Star Wars to its modern animated renaissance.

Tony talked  with Craig Miller, author of Star Wars Memories. Craig shines a spotlight on a little‑known producer whose behind‑the‑scenes contributions were instrumental in getting the first two Star Wars films off the ground.

Next, Tony talks with Dave Filoni, showrunner of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, about the profound impact of legendary concept artist Ralph McQuarrie.

Finally, Tony chats with Tom Kean, a voice actor who has taken on the daunting task of recreating the voice of a beloved Star Wars character—a performance that balances nostalgia, precision, and emotional truth.
