“ Pao originated as a sketch for The Force Awakens — just a one - off drawing from a creative brief that never made it into the movie . He started as a bozo with load of long , spiky hair — glam - rock hair , to give you a gumption of volume — who is basically just a mouth .

Gareth liked the idea of him in the battle , turning to his companion and yelling ‘ Come on!’—but his mouth opens far beyond what you ’d expect . ” – Lunt Davies
