Meet Bigmouth and Space Monkey, two aliens who made their triumphant debut, at Star Wars Celebration Europe, during the Rogue One Sizzle Reel.

Bigmouth’s real name is: Pao

Here’s Rogue One director Gareth Edwards on this guy:

"“There was this great design of this creature that’s mouth would open really wide, and he looked like he was really good at giving orders and shouting at people during a battle. I was like, ‘We’ve got to give him that moment in the film,’ and so [Pao] was born out of that.”"

Space Monkey’s real name is: Bistan.

Here’s what Edwards had to say about him:

"“It’s not necessarily a character that we get to know, but I think he has a very memorable, iconic look. [He’s] one of my favorites. I can’t give away what happens to him.”"

Bistan has been an instant internet sensation, due to his Sizzle Reel shot (seen above, manning the gun of a U-Wing). Bistan is a new alien species to the Star Wars cinematic universe: The Lakaru species.
