Only A True Nerd Can Name All Of These Star Wars Characters

The Star Wars franchise now spans almost countless movies, animated series, comic books and even novels. The universe is simply massive, and it encompasses more than most other fictional universes. After this many movies, we've seen tons of characters introduced to us, and now it's almost getting the point where it's hard to keep track of them all. But true Star Wars fans will have no trouble remembering each and every major (and minor) character that played their part in their epic story, so we're confident that this quiz will be a breeze for most of our readers.

This quiz will be relatively straightforward and simple - just identify the Star Wars character in the picture, and match it to the correct name. The first few characters you see will be very easy to identify, and even the most casual Star Wars fans will find it easy. But as we get further and further down the list, our readers might just find their memories slipping away, as we start to quiz them on minor characters that are very tricky to remember. Only a true Star Wars fan will be able to get 100% on this quiz, that's for sure... Ready to begin?

Question 1

This Queen

We'll start with a figure that almost every Star Wars fan should be able to recognize. This queen started out as an aloof, fairly distant character, but we quickly learned that she wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty. She began on a mission to save her planet and her people, but she soon found herself caught up in an adventure to save the entire galaxy. She was a real fan favorite. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 2

This Bounty Hunter

Here's another legendary character, and this one was a continuation of another figure we saw in the original series. This Bounty Hunter was every bit as skilled and as menacing as his son would later prove to be, but his real value to the story laid in the man's genetic code. He was cloned to create the largest army the galaxy had ever seen, the one which would later become an iconic symbol of Star Wars. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 3

This Authority Figure

Here's another figure which came out much earlier, in the Disney movies. She was definitely quite stern and strict in her leadership style, although she had an amazing plan up her sleeve. The problem was that no one actually listened. She employed new tactics never seen before in a Star Wars film, and the audience was quite amazed by her many antics. In the end, she'll be remembered. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 4

This Villain

Here's one villain which made a really big impact on the series. The long-standing tradition of getting incredible, veteran actors on board continued with this film, and this villain as portrayed by a real legend in Christopher Lee. This actor was no stranger to playing villains, and he did this one with real style. This evil character actually started off his career as a Jedi before turning to the dark side. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 5

This Pilot

Here's another character which has become a huge influence in the latest Disney movies, and he is much more than just a Rebel fighter pilot. This character went on to become one of the many main characters that the series would so heavily rely on in the future, and he was definitely someone who a lot of fans could relate to throughout the ups and downs of the story. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 6

This Villain

Here's another villain, and he was definitely one of the most entertaining we've ever seen. He wasn't quite a Sith, but he had many aspects of a lightsaber-wielding, evil warrior. First and foremost, he knew how to fight with a lightsaber - although not very effectively. He did, however, fight with four at once - all trophies robbed from Jedi warriors who met their end at his hands. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 7

This Jedi

And who could forget this noble Jedi knight? In many respects, he represented the perfect follower of the Jedi path, and in many ways he represented the total subversion of it. He was rebellious against the Jedi council, asked too many questions, and took too many liberties. But this individualistic, inquisitive nature made him one of the finest Jedi we'd ever seen. It was he who figured out the path to immortality in the end. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 8

This Famous Leader

Many would say that this character is simply a meme, exaggerated way out of proportion by the hordes of Star Wars fans. Who could forget his one, expertly delivered line: "It's a trap!" This character was in control of a large, heavily armed ship and he was willing to sacrifice everything for the success of the rebel alliance. In the end, he didn't make it. But we will always remember him. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 9

This New Hero

With the appearance of the newer Disney Star Wars iterations, there has also been an influx of new characters - some more important than others. But everyone can agree that this particular character is a very important one that most of us all know and love. He has emerged as a heroic addition to the films that proves his worth again and again, without fail. A great character. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 10

This New Nemesis

With the new heroes introduced by Disney, we're also seeing a lot more villains being introduced. But none seem more interesting and intriguing than this particular evil character. When we first saw him, he was wearing a strange and dark mask, although eventually we got to see his real face. His comparisons to Darth Vader are obvious, but this really is a completely different character with his one unique traits. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 11

This Classic Villain

And who could forget the grandfather of all Star Wars villains, the one pulling all the strings, the puppet master himself. We knew that this character was evil from the minute we set eyes upon him, and when the prequels rolled around, we were just waiting for him to do something evil and dastardly. He really was a deep, multi-faceted villain with a merciless approach to his quest for power. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 12

This Legendary Jedi

Unfortunately, we only got to see rare glimpses of this Jedi's power, but it was enough to convince us that he was one of the best Jedi knights we'd ever saw. He has a purple lightsaber, because... why not? He was also one of the most strict, "by the book" Jedi Masters, and this stiffness might have led to his eventual demise. If he was more open-minded, then perhaps... But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 13

This Famous Character

Here's another famous character that none of us will ever be able to forget, and this character stole the show on many occasions. He was lovable, but he also had a pretty unfriendly side that could come out when he was angry. At the end of the day, this character was a loyal friend and a great ally, not to mention a brilliant marksman and someone we all wanted with us on this adventure. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 14

This Evil Character

He might not have been as evil as some of the more prominent Sith lords, but this crime lord could be every bit as menacing. In fact, throughout the original trilogy this character and his organization prove to be a constant threat, at times even more so than the Empire. Eventually, this character meets his doom, but not before he puts our heroes in a rather tight situation. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 15

This Interesting Character

Here's another interesting character most of us will remember from the original films, and he made quite a positive impact when he appeared. All of a sudden, Han Solo wasn't the only scoundrel in the universe. This character ran an entire city in the clouds, and although he did mislead and trap our heroes, he proved that he was trustworthy in the end. A great character, and one that reappeared in the more recent films. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 16

This Dangerous Character

Here's another legendary warrior and a great foe. This Sith Lord was perhaps the greatest user of the lightsaber we've ever seen, barring perhaps Anakin or Yoda. His trademark was the double ended lightsaber, which performed like a staff on the battlefield. He succeeded in taking down a great Jedi Knight, but he wasn't good enough to take down the second. He might just be one of the best evil characters we've ever seen. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 17

Everyone's Favorite Jedi

When we first met this character, we thought he was just an old man living in the sand dunes of Tatooine. But quickly we realized that there was much more lurking behind the unassuming visage of this weathered hermit, and an entire history of battles and adventures lay in his past. He was Luke's first teacher, and the man who showed him the mysterious way of the force. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 18

This Amazing New Character

The newer Star Wars movies needed a new hero, and this was the one we'd all been asking for. She was the hero destined to take up the role of Luke Skywalker in the original trilogy, and she did so with style. All of the tricks and powers of the most powerful Jedi warriors seemed to come to her instinctively, as if she didn't even have to try. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 19

The Hero Everyone Knows

Even someone who hasn't even seen a single Star Wars movie could probably tell us who this character is. He was the original hero, and he followed the familiar path of the farm-boy turned revolutionary. From humble beginnings, he rose to challenge an entire empire, and in the end he proved to be victorious. He had his fair share of hurdles to overcome, but he really proved himself. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 20

A Fan Favorite

And who could forget this fan favorite? She was definitely a welcome addition to the cast of the original trilogy, and she was a fiery soul who didn't mind getting involved in a conflict. She was also at the center of one of the best love stories we've ever seen in a sci fi. She appeared even more recently in the Disney Star Wars iterations, much to our joy. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 21

This Legendary Figure

Throughout the timeline of the Star Wars story, there hasn't been a single Jedi warrior that has been more universally loved. This character is essentially completely without flaws, and the entire Jedi organization benefited greatly from having him take up a teaching role with the younglings. He later taught Luke Skywalker the ways of the force, completing his training that he received from Obi-Wan Kenobi. A great character. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 22

This Famous Bounty Hunter

We've already mentioned one Bounty Hunter so far in this quiz, and in truth it's sometimes a little hard to tell them both apart. The later iteration of course took up his father's armor, wearing it with pride as he became one of the best bounty hunters the galaxy had ever seen. It's a very tragic story in many ways, and the son of this bounty hunter undoubtedly came to despise the Jedi as a result. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 23

The Central Villain

Was he a villain, or was he in fact the main character of George Lucas' 6 part, epic science fiction space opera? It's never quite clear, and in the end this character actually managed to redeem himself. But before all this, he was definitely one of the most evil forces in the entire universe, and many people met their end at his hands. He came a long way from being a podracer. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 24

Everyone's Favorite

And who could forget this character, the one and only space smuggler who won such high praise from virtually every Star Wars fan? The thing which made this character so likable on so many levels was the level of realism he brought to the table. When we saw this character interact with the world, he did so in such a genuine way that we immediately believed in everything that was going on around him. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 25

This Funny Little Droid

Droids have always played a pretty big role in the Star Wars universe, and this one is definitely an example of a major droid character. This was the original cute robot, although many others came afterwards, and were no doubt inspired by this one. Wall-E springs to mind. This character could only ever communicate with a series of beeps and boops, but he was one of the most expressive characters. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 26

This Protocol Droid

Droids are everywhere we look in the Star Wars universe, but rarely do we get to see what's inside the mind of a droid. This particular character is an exception to that rule, and through his behavior and communication, it became clear that droids were real, genuine beings in this galaxy. They had personalities, fears, and even a sense of humor. It was all part of the Star Wars world. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 27

Another Cute Droid

And who could forget this cute droid? As if R2-D2 wasn't enough, the folks at Disney decided to add in yet another cute droid, just for good measure. And the droid was a total hit, employing a unique spherical shape and a cute voice and personality. They even made toys out of this character, and everyone can now own their very own BB-8 droid. A great addition to the series. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 28

This Combat Droid

Another very unique and quirky droid was this combat droid. Although he was designed for the battlefield, he was probably the most hilarious droid we'd ever seen. He was actually captured from the Empire and reprogrammed to serve the Rebellion instead. But someone must have turned his sarcasm dial way up when they were messing with his circuitry, because this droid has some serious attitude. A brilliant character and a worthy addition. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 29

Did He Fire First?

Ah, the age old question. Did this character shoot first? Or was it actually Han Solo? Every true Star Wars fan worth their salt knows about this endless debate, and the real fans know the correct answer. But it all started when this character walked into a Tatooine establishment and started messing with Han Solo - bad decision on his part. In the end, this character never left that building... But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 30

One Of The Empire's Best

Without a doubt, this character was one of the Empire's best and brightest. Why else would he alone be given responsibility over the Death Star - the most powerful weapon the Empire had ever created? This cold, calculating Empire official dealt with the Rebellion in a calm, efficient manner. It was all just another day's work for him. In the end, he proved himself to be one of the most iconic villains in Star Wars. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 31

This Moisture Farming Uncle

He might not have gotten a lot of screen time, but this character was essential to establishing the Star Wars universe in the very first movie. He gave us an insight into what the "average Joe" of this galaxy looked like, and how humans lived in this world. He also showed us that Luke was merely a child, still expecting to obey his uncle and aunt. These moisture farmers were doomed. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 32

This Amazing Character

This was an amazing character and a brilliant addition to the Star Wars universe. It was only a shame that we never got to see more of him. He wasn't quite a Jedi, but he definitely believed in the force, which was a rare thing during the time that this movie took place. He showed his incredible skill in battle, and he probably would have been a Jedi if they still existed. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 33

This Brave Rebel

Here's another character our readers might be able to recognize, and this one was another brilliant addition to the first movie, A New Hope. She delivered a very powerful speech right before the assault on the first Death Star, and it was information from her people which enabled the Rebel pilots to exploit the weak spot on this colossal war machine. She didn't have much screen time, but she's an iconic character. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 34

This New Addition

Here's a relatively new addition the ever growing roster of Star Wars characters, and in fact this character comes from the newest movie yet - Solo: A Star Wars Story. The actress behind this character is a very recognizable one, having appeared in Game Of Thrones and many other productions. Her character in this movie is actually someone who grew up on the same planet as Han Solo. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 35

This Podracer

And who could forget this evil, cheating podracer who almost ended things for Anakin? He was the primary villain in the early part of Revenge Of The Sith, the first movie we had seen since the original trilogy. He was a crafty little alien, and he knew how to rig matches. But in the end, he lost the race and Anakin was set free. This is one character that many of us recognize. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 36

Leia's Adoptive Father

Trade negotiations play a surprisingly large role in the world of Star Wars, and the intrigue of this forum is often a very interesting sub-plot in this more action focused story. One of the key players in the world of intergalactic negotiations is this character, who ends up helping the Jedi more than any other power figure. When order 66 is enacted, he miraculously escapes and raises Leia. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 37

Another New Addition

Here's another interesting addition to the Star Wars universe, and this one actually played the lead role in one of the newer Star Wars movies - Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. She is a lost daughter searching for answers, and in the end she plays a major role in the success of the Rebel plight against the Empire. Like all the characters introduced in this story, she doesn't make it out. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 38

A Great Character

Here is yet another character introduced in Rogue One, and this hero ends up fighting till the bitter end in his battle against the Empire. A good friend of Imwe, he watches over him and tries to help whenever he can. Armed with a powerful energy blaster, he's more than a handful for Storm Troopers who get in his way. But in the end, he doesn't make it off the planet's surface. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 39

Another Awesome Character

This is another character from Rogue One, and perhaps one who has the greatest lasting legacy on the rest of the Star Wars movies. In a pretty smart move, Disney uses this character to explain the huge flaw in the Death Star's construction. With this retcon, they explain that this character purposely puts the flaw in the blueprints when he designed the massive weapon. He ended up being a very memorable character. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 40

This Villain

And then we have the villain of Rogue One, an Empire employee of extremely high rank. His goal is simple - get the Death Star completed and destroy the rebels. He will stop at nothing to get it all done, and that's what makes him so evil. He proves to be a tough nut to crack, and he hangs on until the very end. He perfectly sums up what the Empire is all about. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 41

This Criminal

This criminal might not have enjoyed a lot of screen time, but there's no denying that a lot of Star Wars fans probably remember him. In fact, people enjoyed his presence so much that he was given a name, and even a backstory. For those who don't remember, this is the alien who gave Luke Skywalker trouble at Mos Eisley, prompting Obi-Wan to finish him off before he could harm Luke. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 42

This... Thing

This is another character who we really only caught a glimpse of, but it was enough to make this character an iconic part of Star Wars. We don't really know what he is, or why he was playing music at Jabba the Hutt's personal home, but he does look vaguely like an elephant. This was in the Return Of The Jedi, when George Lucas went all out with puppets. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 43

This Pilot

Here's another very minor character, and this one didn't exactly last very long. He appeared in the first movie, A New Hope. He was present during the assault on the Death Star, but he didn't get very far before he was downed by Imperial Fighters. He famously yelled out that the enemy was all over his six before he went down in a ball of flames. He will be missed. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 44

This Tatooine Resident

There are many interesting residents on Tatooine, and during the many films of Star Wars, we've been able to see a huge variety of them. Some are nice people, others are evil, and some are just trying to survive. This particular Tatooine resident falls somewhere in between all of that, and he's the one who owns Anakin and his mother - who are in a bad way when we meet them. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 45

This Famous Character

And who could forget this famous character? Although not everyone was overly thrilled by this character's inclusion, there's no denying that this character is one of the most iconic Star Wars personalities. Interestingly, there are all kinds of interesting theories out there about this character, and what he was really intended to be. We'll never know, because his role in the film was changed after the release of the first film. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 46

Lando's Associate

Here's another pretty minor character that only the most educated Star Wars fans will be able to get. This one was on screen for a few important scenes, although he was always seen as an associate of Lando Calrissian. Just like Han Solo has Chewie, Lando has this little alien, and he is seen acting as a co-pilot and assistant many times. A great character and one that many remember. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 47

This Jedi Master

Although the Jedi council is filled with all kinds of interesting faces and figures, we don't really get to meet any of them, other than Yoda, Obi-Wan, and Mace Windu. The rest are all swept under the rug for the most part, and true Star Wars fans have to dive into other things like cartoons and books to learn more about them. This Jedi Master was one of the most prominent. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 48

This Bounty Hunter

There is one scene in one of the original Star Wars movies where the Empire is in the process of hiring an entire room full of bounty hunters, and we see some truly interesting characters in this scene. Many of the bounty hunters are never given names or a backstory, and we only know of Boba Fett. But certain characters like this one gained a cult following, and were even made into action figures. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 49

This Jedi Master

Here is yet another Jedi Master who only a few die-hard Star Wars fans know about, and this one was on screen for a grand total of about 2 minutes. Nevertheless, he was able to win over quite a few Star Wars fans, and was later given his own backstory in episodes of the animated series, The Clone Wars. This was a Jedi Master, so he was very powerful. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?

Question 50

Another Amazing Jedi Master

Another Jedi Master who we never really learned much about was this one, and he was regularly seen fighting in some of the most important battles during the Clone Wars. He earned his place on the Jedi Council, so that must mean that he is incredibly powerful, wise and strong with the force. Just like almost all other Jedi, he met his end when order 66 was enacted. But can our readers match this screenshot to the actual Star Wars character?
