List of Star Wars characters

This incomplete list of characters from the ''Star Wars'' franchise contains only those which are considered part of the official ''Star Wars'' canon, as of the changes made by Lucasfilm in April 2014. Following its acquisition by The Walt Disney Company in 2012, Lucasfilm rebranded most of the novels, comics, video games and other works produced since the originating 1977 film ''Star Wars'' as ''Star Wars Legends'' and declared them non-canon to the rest of the franchise. As such, the list contains only information from the Skywalker Saga films, the 2008 animated TV series ''Star Wars: The Clone Wars'', and other films, shows, or video games published or produced after April 2014.

The list includes humans and various alien species. No droid characters are included; for those, see the list of ''Star Wars'' droid characters. Some of the characters featured in this list have additional or alternate plotlines in the non-canonical ''Legends'' continuity. To see those or characters who do not exist at all in the current ''Star Wars'' canon, see the list of ''Star Wars Legends'' characters and list of ''Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic'' characters.
