Yesterday's episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi was another stellar instalment of the limited series, but amidst all the incredible action and plot twists, there was a fun cameo.
We are, of course, talking about Scrubs and Cheaper by the Dozen star Zach Braff. Initially, we thought Seth Rogen might have been lending his voice to Freck, the Empire loving alien who gives "Ben" and Leia a ride before selling them out to some Stormtroopers. In reality, it was Braff, marking a reunion with director Deborah Chow.
They first worked together in her directorial debut The High Cost of Living, and Braff has frequently talked about his friendship with Chow on his and Donald Faison's (who we're sure is very jealous) podcast Fake Doctors, Real Friends.
Freck survives when all is said and done, so fingers crossed we see him appear somewhere down the line. For now, it feels like he got his just desserts courtesy of Ben.
Among the actors credited as Stormtroopers in this episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi are AJ Troup (Pam & Tommy), Shane Hartline (Rock of Ages), Ardeshir Radpour (Avatar: The Way of Water), Melanie Moslie (Rizzoli & Isles), and Will Westwater (Shameless). Braff was the big cameo, though, and we're sure a lot of the actor's fans will appreciate him joining this Galaxy Far, Far Away.
