ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What was it like revisiting this character a decade later?
Did you have to go back and watch the oldClone Warsepisodes to get the voice back?
SETH GREEN:I just listened to the voice.
Todo 360 (voiced by Seth Green) on ‘Star Wars: The Bad Batch’.Lucasfilm Ltd.
They luckily had some vocal references for it.
I really remember the character.
So I love Todo 360, especially because he really believes what he’s doing is right.

He’s a good little droid.
He’s just working for one of the baddest bad guys in the galaxies.
Well, I thinkAnthony Daniels[the voice of C-3PO] is the prototypical protocol droid.
And so anything that I was going to attempt was going to start with that version of an accent.
And then beyond that, Todo’s a really fastidious, detail-oriented character.
And then they gave me the opportunity for quips.
And then it’s up to me to justify it, which is fun.
Why does Todo put up with all that abuse from Cad Bane?
He really does, but Cad Bane is also his guy.
It’s a little like imprinting on a baby or an animal.
That’s where Todo is coming from.
I really think Todo is a lot more like Jacob than anybody gives him credit for.
[Laughs] I hope that’s the slug line for this article.
You’ve done so many voices over the years.
Is it hard finding a voice you haven’t used before?
How are you always able to find something a little bit new each time?
He was like, “At this point, I think I’ve heard them all.”
And I was like, “Oh no.
Better dig deep, find something weird.”
We came up with something even stranger.
It’s my favorite thing to do.
You’ve been doing animatedStar Warsstuff for so long.
I mean, going back to thoseRobot Chickeninstallments.
So when are we going to see you in a live-actionStar Warsrole?
When’s that happening?
You know what I mean?
And I’m like, “Sounds good, let’s do it.”
What would you want to play in a live-actionStar Wars?
Jedi, bounty hunter, something else?
Well, let’s look at me realistically.
I know what the audience is going to buy.
That’s the thing.
You could get super-messed up and be built into a puppet in a chair and play something really exotic.
That’d be fun too.
So I’m not opposed to playing something.
And I don’t really contest that.
So what will we see next from Todo and Bane?
Any word on moreBad Batchappearances?
Did you see they put out that sweet Black Series [action figure set]?
I was thrilled about that.
I’m still happy.
And also, it’s so exciting to watchThe Mandalorianinspire all of this investigation into other places.
People who’ve never watchedStar WarswatchedThe Mandalorianand were like, “What do you know about the Darksaber?”
So it’s been a thrill to see all these characters come to live-action.
And I’m so excited for stuff likethe Ahsoka seriesandthe Obi-Wan series, and the other.
Come on, we’re winning so hardcore, I can’t even take it.
I used to get my ass kicked with my ownStar Warsmetal lunchbox.
My kids are never going to have to fight because they’re wearing a Jedi robe to school.
That feels like a kind of victory.
