Asogians were a sentient species in the galaxy. At least three Asogians were affiliated with the Galactic Senate of the Republic at the time of Naboo's invasion.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Asogians first appeared in the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, as a homage to the title character of Steven Spielberg's 1982 classic film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial to make good on a promise—after Spielberg included a Yoda cameo and Star Wars toys such as Boba Fett in E.T., George Lucas promised to include an E.T. cameo in the next Star Wars film he made—The Phantom Menace.[2]
