‘Sh*t, I’m a F*cking Jedi’: Samuel L. Jackson Was Shocked by Star Wars Role

In the vast array of memorable characters portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson, Mace Windu from Star Wars might just take the cake as the most iconic. Interestingly, the actor himself admitted that he never imagined he’d embody a Jedi in this legendary sci-fi franchise, initially assuming his role would be that of an unnamed stormtrooper.
