Freddie Prinze Jr. chats on The Queen Latifah Show about his new Jedi role in Star Wars Rebels and how his adorable 5-year-old daughter with wife Sarah Michelle Gellar loves the bad guys!
Prinze tells the Queen that he didn't want to show his children, Charlotte, 5, and Rocky, 2, his role as Jedi survivor Kanan Jarrus in Disney Channel's Star Wars Rebels until it was fully finished. "I tried to keep it a secret because I wanted to still be magical and special," he said.
However, the secret was no longer kept as his daughter Charlotte went to school, Prinze said, "All the kids at her school ruined that right away," he said. "They saw commercials and their parents tell them and they're like, 'Your dad's a Jedi!' So, Charlotte comes home and she goes, 'Daddy, what is this show? I wanna watch this show that you're on! Why didn't you tell me about the show?' I'm like, 'Baby, it's not on yet. I was going to surprise you.' She's like, 'Everybody knows this!'"
Prinze will be providing the voice of Kanan in the series Star Wars Rebels. The series takes place in a time where the Empire is securing its group on the galaxy and hunting down the last of the Jedi Knights as a rebellion against the Empire is taking shape.
As exciting as the show sounds, Freddie thought it was just adorable that Charlotte felt so left out because her father didn't inform her of his role. He explains that she loves the bad guy roles: "She sees bad guys in any cartoon and the first thing she asks is, 'Why don't they have to do what anyone tells them?'" he revealed. "I had this father moment where I'm willing to lie to a child, so I said, 'No, he can't do whatever he wants.' And she goes, 'Well, who's his boss?' I said, 'The emperor!' She said, 'Who's the emperor?' I said, 'I am the emperor-and that's all you need to know!'"
A very valid question from any 5-year-old!
