A wise alien from Cerea, Ki-Adi-Mundi brings a sense of trust and ease with his duties to the Jedi Order, as well as being an exceptional fighting force when required. Another developing character in the Prequel universe, played with distinction by Silas Carson, who'd also play several other roles large and small in EPISODE I.
"For Jedi Master Ki-Adi Mundi I wore
prosthetics that were actually stuck to my face. There was the head, the front
piece for my face, two cheeks, and then the hair. The material used was a kind of foam latex that was very easy to
put on, very easy to wear, and very, very light. It did take a bit longer to
apply because everything had to be glued down and repainted tho hide the
cracks-about two to three hours. However, I actually found it to be quite
pleasant."

"Because of the way he looks, less like an alien and more like a human being with a weird double skull, I played Ki-Adi as someone who was very gentle. He's kind of like the uncle you always wanted: he's very human, very warm."
