''This article is about the English actor. For the psychiatrist, see Anthony Daniels (psychiatrist).

Anthony Daniels (born February 21, 1946 in Salisbury, England) is an actor best known for his role as the droid C-3PO in the "Star Wars" series of films made between 1977 and 2005. It is interesting to note that Daniels and Kenny Baker (who played R2-D2 in the series) are the only actors credited as playing the same role in all six of them (although apparently Baker is only in the closing scene of Episode II and does not actually appear in Episode III at all).

Aside from playing the fussy droid in all six movies, Daniels has reprised the role frequently over the past three decades. He's donned the shiny suit for: various promotional work, including hosting The Making of Star Wars; for appearances on The Muppet Show and Sesame Street; for commercials including Kenner toys, a no-smoking PSA, and even a breakfast cereal based on the character; and for prequel tie-ins such as Star Wars Connections and The Science of Star Wars. He also voiced C-3PO in a radio serial based on the original trilogy, for the Disneyland theme park attraction Star Tours, and also for two animated series: Droids and Clone Wars. He also provided the narration and all character voices for the Dark Force Rising and The Last Command audio books.
