The original Star Wars trilogy gave fans some of the most fantastic characters in all of pop culture, from heroes such as Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, and Han Solo, to villains like Darth Vader and the Emperor. The impact of all these characters could be felt across at least two of the three films, but not all memorable characters get more than one movie outing.

The likes of Grand Moff Tarkin, Mon Mothma, and a tonne of others have since appeared in standalone films and other trilogies. But, there remain some great characters who have yet to find themselves called up for another Star Wars film appearance.

Figrin D'an And The Modal Nodes - A New Hope (1977)

Figrin Dan and the Modal Nodes appear in the iconic cantina scene in A New Hope along with a slew of other phenomenal aliens that never appear in the films again, such as Momaw Nadon, Muftak, Kabe, Hem Dazon, Kardue'sai'Malloc, Myo, and more.

What sets the seven-member Bith band apart from the others is their smash hit single "Mad About Me," which is also known as "Cantina Band," the iconic tune played by the band when audiences first enter Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina with Luke and Obi-Wan. The band has appeared a few times in canon, notably From A Certain Point Of View, but never in another film.

Salacious B. Crumb - Return Of The Jedi (1983)

Salacious B Crumb in Star Wars Return Of The Jedi

Everything about Salacious B. Crumb is a bit wild. Not only is his name one of the best in the Star Wars Galaxy, but the design of the creature is creepy to no end, standing out in Jabba's Palace despite all the other fantastic designs surrounding him.

Crumb was a Kowakian Monkey Lizard and has appeared in various comics and pieces of content over the past couple of years. His only movie appearance remains Return Of The Jedithough, where the shrill laughter of Jabba's Jester made fans want to hit him.

Max Rebo - Return Of The Jedi (1983)

The Max Rebo Band plays in Return of the Jedi.

The Max Rebo Band was a twelve-member amalgamation of weird and wonderful characters such as Droopy McCool (real name Snit) and Sy Snootles, all led by the memorable Ortolan Max Rebo.

Jabba's Palace introduces fans to a bunch of unforgettable characters and creature designs. Still, Max Rebo has always stuck in the memory of fans and is one that audiences have hoped to see more of since 1983. Alas, his canon appearances outside of Return Of The Jedi have been limited to comics, books, and a slew of animated TV episodes where his name gets mentioned in posters.

Various Ewoks - Return Of The Jedi (1983)

The Ewoks are not only an important part of Return Of The Jedi's third act but a great part. The teddy bear-like creatures have only become more beloved as more generations grow up on the franchise.

Perhaps the most well-known Ewok is Wicket Wystri Warrick, who makes a cameo in The Rise Of Skywalker. The majority of Ewoks, though, have only appeared in Return Of The Jedi. The likes of Logray, Chief Chirpa, Teebo, Asha Fahn, and many more are all brilliant but have only made their way into one Star Wars film.

Lobot - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

Lobot helps Lando on Cloud City in The Empire Strikes Back

Many canon comics are utterly fantastic and deserve to get read, but the Star Wars: Lando run is a must-read for fans of Lobot and The Empire Strikes Back. It adds so much weight, tragedy, and overall quality to the character.

Taking that into account, Lobot is undoubtedly one of the best characters to have only appeared in one Star Wars film. Played by John Hollis, Lobot is a significant original trilogy character, helping not only run and maintain Cloud City but also helping the heroes escape from the beautiful Bespin and evade the Empire. Lobot has thankfully appeared in a bunch of high-quality canon content since the new era of Star Wars began, just not a film.

Malakili - Return Of The Jedi (1983)

Malakili cries about the death of his Rancor in Return of the Jedi

When Luke Skywalker killed the Rancor, Pateesa, in Return Of The Jedi, it was one of the movie's many fistbump moments, something it does arguably more and better than any other Star Wars film. Quickly, though, the act did not seem so heroic.

That was because of Makalili. Jabba's beastmaster sobbed at the sight of the fallen creature, and it was hard not to sympathize with him. Makalili has had his story and character expanded upon in the canon, and it is honestly fascinating. The character endured a lot of trauma following Return of the Jedi and even considered suicide before meeting everyone's favorite sheriff Cobb Vanth. His single-movie appearance is one of the original trilogy's most memorable.

Bossk - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

Bossk growls at an Imperial in The Empire Strikes Back.

Bossk is representative of the entire bounty hunter lineup, excluding Boba Fett in The Empire Strikes Back. All of Dengar, IG-88, Zuckuss, 4-LOM, and Bossk are wildly iconic yet have only appeared in one film.

The Trandoshan Bossk has since appeared in the likes of The Clone Wars, and forty-plus years later, remains one of the most iconic Star Wars characters to come out of the original trilogy. More on-screen appearances are undoubtedly in his future, with many options for him in the likes of The Bad Batch, The Mandalorian, The Book Of Boba Fett, and more.

General Veers (& Other Imperials) - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

General Veers commences his attack on Echo Base in Star Wars Empire Strikes Back

Played by the excellent Julian Glover, General Veers is one of the most iconic Imperial Officers of the original trilogy despite his lack of dialogue and screentime. He is one of many Imperials only to make one film appearance.

Admiral Motti, Cassio Tagge, Moff Jerjerrod, Lorth Needa, and more only appeared in one film but are thoroughly enjoyed by fans. Leading the Empire's assault on the rebels and Echo base during the incredible Battle of Hoth with a cool demeanor and powerful presence has helped make Maximillian Veers a beloved element of his one film.

Biggs Darklighter (& Other Rebels) - A New Hope (1977)

Friend of Luke Skywalker and owner of an incredible mustache, Biggs Darklighter is one of the original trilogy's most iconic rebels to only appear in one film alongside the likes of Jek Porkins, Dak Ralter, and more.

Unlike the likes of Nein Numb and Wedge Antilles, who went on to appear in The Rise Of Skywalker, Biggs was not lucky enough to make it out of the original trilogy, as he got shot down during the iconic trench run in the Battle of Yavin. Nevertheless, Red Three died a hero, and while a film appearance is unlikely for Biggs' future, he will undoubtedly keep popping up in canon.

Greedo - A New Hope (1977)

Greedo

Technically Greedo appears in a deleted scene of The Phantom Menace, but given that he is a child in the movie and that most fans will not have seen it, it is not unfair to say he only has one actual movie appearance under his belt.

Despite having mere minutes of screentime in A New Hope, and dying in iconic fashion soon after his arrival, Greedo has remained one of the most memorable and loved characters of the 1977 classic. The Rodian has not appeared in a tonne of canon material either, which is a surprise, although he does have a Clone Wars episode and a few comic mentions to his name. He is the kind of scum and villainy that could pop up in the Obi-Wan series, but only time will tell.
