K-2SO

"He means well."

- Cassian Andor, on K-2SO

K-2SO, sometimes spelled Kaytoo Esso or Kay-Tuesso, was an enforcer droid originally created for use in the Galactic Empire's armed forces.

At some point, however, the droid encountered Captain Cassian Andor -- a member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, a resistance movement that sought to overthrow the Empire and restore democracy. Andor was able to reprogram K-2SO to serve the Alliance.

Along with a band of roguish Alliance operatives, K-2SO went on a daring mission to steal the plans for the Empire's moon-sized battle station, the Death Star.

Behind the scenes
K-2SO will be portrayed in motion capture by Alan Tudyk in the upcoming Star Wars stand-alone film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. His name was first revealed in a preview of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story: The Official Visual Story Guide, though the source listed him as both "K-2SO" and incorrectly as "K-250".
