Star Wars: Episode 7 - The Force Awakens Star Wars: Episode 8 - The Last Jedi Star Wars: Episode 9 - The Rise of Skywalker |
The Star Wars sequel trilogy tried to live up to the originals but had lots of problems with story,ꦺ character arcs, and direction. However, arguably one of the best characters to come out from that entire continuation was Finn, a protagonist who was more likable and interesting than even the main Jedi hero Rey.
Finn is a Stormtrooper who defected from the First Order and is also force-sensitive, though not a full-on trained Jedi. There's a mysteriousness and complexity to him that should've been better explored. He also had some of the most memorable moments in the sequels, whether it was his fight with FN-2199 and Captain Phasma, a sidequest to Canto Bight, being a resistance co-general with Poe Dameron, and wielding a lightsaber.

Greez's character has one of the best personalities in the entire game, his moody and sarcastic tone never disappointing in dialogue interactions.

Although her daughter Princess Leia gets most of the recognition, Padmé deserves icon status in her own right as an outstanding non-Jedi female protagonist. From her debut as Queen of Naboo in The Phantom Menace, styled in her iconic royal garb, to her life with Anakin and as a Senator that's even more fleshed out in the animated series, Padmé is a leader you can admire.
She strives for peace and is one of the last beacons of hope for preserving the Republic and democracy during the Clone Wars, ultimately betrayed by Anakin and the Sith forces that corrupted him. She's also pretty good with a blaster and won't shy away from a fight.

The Mandalorian |
The only other character in The Mandalorian who can outshine an iconic duo like Mando and Grogu is Nevarro's Greef Karga. Karga is also played by late Hollywood icon Carl Weathers, who delivers one more unforgettable performance and has one of the best arcs in the series.
In the beginning, Karga works as a Guild Master to assign bounties to hunters based in Nevarro, with The Mandalorian being one of his regulars. He's not kind to Mando and even plots to kill him in order to ensure the bounty on Grogu is met, but has a change of heart along the way and becomes an ally. He would go on to be in a new leadership role as the High Magistrate of Nevarro.

Star Wars: Episode 6 - Return of the Jedi Star Wars: Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith Star Wars: The Clone Wars Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Star Wars Rebels Andor Ahsoka |
Mon Mothma is one of the best and most underrate🧜d female Star Wars characters in the series, period. When all the hype is about Leia and Padmé, 𓆉or Jedis Ahsoka and Cere, Mon Mothma has an edge over them due to her importance in the Rebellion, essentially the de facto leader of the Rebel Alliance and, before that, a powerful political figure in the Galactic Senate.
Mon Mothma made her first appearance in Return of the Jedi planning the second attempt at destroying the Death Star, but has also been the one to set in motion the recovery of the Death Star plans in Rogue One. She's been more and more fleshed out in prequel shows like Star Wars: The Clone Wars and especially Andor, where you really gain a new respect for her as a character, and Ahsoka features Mon in the aftermath of the fall of the Empire.

Clone troopers are, by and large, disposable characters that served the Jedi in the Republic army prior to the activation of Order 66, but not if you're Captain Rex or Clone Force 99 (aka The Bad Batch). Rex and the members of Clone Force 99 are perfect examples of well-developed clone trooper main characters in the Star Wars universe who've turned into fan-favorite characters.

It's not just the Jedi who are great ch൩aracters in Star Wars.
Rex is the clone trooper captain in blue-and-white gear and wielding dual blaster pistols, who's been by Ahsoka Tano's side throughout all of the Clone Wars and the events in Rebels. The Bad Batch is made up of a disobedient bunch of clones unaffected by Order 66, like Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Crosshair, and Echo, who are tasked with protecting Omega, the sole female clone of Jango Fett's.

When it comes to the best droid protagonists in Star Wars, there are really only two that fit the description. Those would, of course, be C-3PO and R2-D2, the droid odd couple who always tend to bicker and disagree in wholesome and charming situations that arise. They're seen for the first time in A New Hope, but they've been by Obi-Wan's side for even longer, their origins going back to The Phantom Menace and The Clone Wars.
C-3PO and R2-D2 come with their own set of skills and are like the droid versions of Han Solo and Chewbacca. Out of all the OG characters, they've probably had the most appearances across all Star Wars media, with C-3PO even getting a cameo in the first season of Ahsoka. But it never gets old, and you'll only delight in it.

Speaking of Han Solo and Chewbacca, there'll never be a more iconic duo in Star Wars than them. And Lando Calrissian, Han's close friend and former smuggler, completes the holy trinity of Star Wars protagonists. It all started in the prequel spin-off movie, Solo: A Star Wars Story, and they've stuck with each other during the original trilogy and the sequel trilogy.
When you think of non-Jedi characters, Han Solo immediately stands out thanks to the iconic delivery Harrison Ford gave to this captain of the Millennium Falcon. Lando is likewise a decorated pilot for the Rebellion and has lots of charisma, whether it's Donald Glover or Billy Dee Williams in the role. Chewie is the sweet, funny, and menacing Wookiee that completes them.
