The 10 Sexiest Characters in the Star Wars Universe

6. Koyi Mateil

Apparently I have a thing for Twi’leks.

One of the 10 background Star Wars characters with the most ridiculously convoluted backgrounds, the only time we saw Koyi Mateil was as she and her (much older but undoubtedly rich & powerful) date were leaving the Coruscant Opera House.

Clearly the most obscure character on this list, Koyi actually altered her skin color to appear more attractive to humans (according to Expanded U backstory). Oh, and boobs.

 

5. Obi-Wan Kenobi

Sir Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor certainly have their respective legions of fans. Throw in the power of The Force, an expert-level beard, and the cool-under-fire panache of Obi-Wan Kenobi, and you have one of the sexiest characters in the Star Wars Universe.

Power is sexy in any universe, and Obi-Wan’s got it. Not only was he a Jedi Master, but also a General in The Clone Wars. We get a glimpse of his wild side when he and Anakin chase Zam Wesell into a bar on Coruscant and Obi-Wan instructs Skywalker to conduct a search while he grabs a drink.

 

4. Padme Amidala

When someone as gorgeous as Keira Knightley can stand in as your decoy, you must be hot. The prequel trilogy’s answer to Princess Leia, Padme Amidala was the only primary human eye candy for three films.

Natalie Portman was well cast as Carrie Fisher’s mother, but one has to wonder why mom consistently chose midriff-bearing attire while daughter was so much more conservative. It’s just too bad one of those arena beasts on Geonosis didn’t capture Padme and trot her out in some prequel-era slave gear.

 

3. Lando Calrissian

Powerful, sophisticated, smooth. Powerful? Yes. The Star Wars Universe is one of the few places where someone who runs an entire city is not immediately thought of as “powerful” (because of all the Force wielders and Galactic Senators we’re used to seeing).

Lando was indeed a powerful man, and he clearly knew how to get what he wanted (see: Millennium Falcon, keeping the Empire out of Bespin forever). While Han and Luke coyly beat around the “I wanna bang Leia” bush for 2 movies, Lando went right after it.

 

2. Princess Leia

Speaking of Princess Leia! Carrie Fisher spent three movies playing Leia Organa, and the subsequent 35 years in the dreams of fanboys.

1. Han Solo

No shocker here. The boyish charm, the wavy locks, those pants.

Gotta give Oola an extra point bump for being the only character in any of the movies to have a nip slip.

The fact that Bib Fortuna is missing makes me cry…

You would think that I’d have him listed based on my obvious Twi’lek fetish..

I know Corey Chapman’s pinup of the Garmorian Guard still hasn’t been taken down.

Carrie Fisher is (was) cute but in no way sexier than Natalie Portman, even with her RoTJ outfit.

If you had included the EU, #1 would’ve undoubtedly been Jarael, the Arkanian female from the KOTOR comics.

Darth Talon (EU) is smoking hot…

And if I were a female of the species I think I’d want to see both Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine on that list…power !

Good point. When I started the list I figured I’d have a lot more “power is sexy” entries like that, but never ended up needing them!

Just looked up Talon, she IS hot! I do have a thing for Twi’leks.

Thanks for the comments you’ve left on the site recently. It is much appreciated!

Where is Mara Jade on this list? Hot redheaded assassin trained by the Emperor himself. Nearly killed Luke but eventually became his badass wife and mother to Jedi kids.

Uh, sorry, why is Jango Fett not number one?!?

Star Wars: Sexist, without even being sexy.

I’m glad to see the list is split equally between the genders, good choices too.

Cassidy June 2, 2015 at 9:44 pm

Am I the only one that thinks Obi-Wan should totally top this list?

Hmmm, this is a pretty good list, with very good characters. The only ones I don’t agree on is number 6 with Koyi Mateil. To me, sexisness is not just physical appearance. But also personality too. And Koyi Mateil didn’t have any character at all. She was just a random Twi’lek character who appeared in the background. Oola and Aayla Secure are WAY better. In terms of design and character development. I’d replace Koyi Mateil with Anakin or someone like that. But then again, you have a Twi’lek fetish so…you’d probably make the whole list all background Twi’lek characters if you wanted to.

You’re crazy for leaving Like & Anakin off the list.

Anakin is the most handsome freaking hot of all the gallaxy.

In the book Lords of the Sith it is said that many officers of the Empire have Twi’lek mistresses.
