Jett Lucas portrayed Zett Jukassa, a young Jedi Padawan in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones and in Revenge of the Sith. As Darth Vader and the Grand Army descend on the Jedi Temple in ROTS, Jukassa fought his way to a landing platform on the upper level of the temple. When Senator Bail Organa was denied access to the temple and was forced to leave, Jukassa attempted to flee and was killed by clone troopers.
Jett’s likeness was later used in creating the character Ion Papanoida, the son of Baron Papanoida, in the television series Star Wars:The Clone Wars. His character was voiced by Seth Green. Ion’s sisters, Eekwat & Che Amanwe, were kidnapped and both the Baron and Ion set out on a mission to save their beloved family members. After proving to Jabba the Hutt that Greedo had kidnapped his sisters, Ewkwat, Che, Ion & the Baron were safely reunited.
Lucas currently lives in Chicago and works as a Production Assistant on the NBC hit series Chicago Fire.
Planet Comicon is proud to host Jett’s FIRST convention appearance.
