50 free Star Wars: Attack of the Clones trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
Attack of the Clones is the Star Wars film that moved Hollywood into the digital age: George Lucas shot it entirely on Sony's new HD cameras, built its Yoda from pixels instead of foam, and previsualised whole battles with home-video 'videomatics' before a frame was filmed. It is also the film whose working title was a joke at Jar Jar's expense, whose Thursday opening beat Independence Day, and whose love story won a Razzie. These 50 questions cover the whole of Episode II: the plot on Kamino, Tatooine and Geonosis, the clone army's origins, the cast from Christopher Lee to Rose Byrne, the Sydney shoot and Lake Como locations, John Williams's Across the Stars, the reviews, the box office and the DVD Easter egg. Easy questions stick to Dooku, Kamino and Jango; the expert tier asks about camera models, cut cameos and who exactly was consulted on the CGI Yoda. Every answer is cited to a page we checked, with a short explanation so you learn something even when you miss. Play it solo, challenge a friend, or print it for a Star Wars night.

Q 01Attack of the Clones co-writer Jonathan Hales had scripted which hero's boyhood adventures for TV?
Indiana Jones
Indiana Jones. Hales had written episodes of The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, so Lucas brought him in on the third draft of Attack of the Clones, which became the shooting script.
Q 02Which film followed Attack of the Clones?
Revenge of the Sith
Revenge of the Sith. It closed the prequel trilogy in 2005 as the first Star Wars film rated PG-13, and Lucas said he wouldn't take a five- or six-year-old to see it.

Padawan
Padawan. The nine-year-old slave boy is now Obi-Wan's apprentice, and during the Clone Wars Yoda assigns him a learner of his own, Ahsoka Tano.
Q 04On which planet does Attack of the Clones stage its arena battle, the first of the Clone Wars?

Geonosis. Its insect-like natives build the Separatists' battle droids, and as the fighting ends Dooku slips away with their design for a planet-killing weapon: the Death Star.
Q 05On which ocean planet does Obi-Wan discover the clone army?
Kamino
Kamino. All trace of the planet had been erased from the Jedi Archives, so Obi-Wan had to work out where the missing world was before he could meet its cloners.

Jango Fett. Apart from his considerable pay he demanded only one thing: an unaltered clone for himself, whom he raises as his son Boba.

Naboo
Naboo. A Jedi is forbidden such an attachment and could be expelled for it, so the wedding stays secret, with only two droids as witnesses.

Q 23In Attack of the Clones, what does Obi-Wan mind-trick a nightclub dealer into no longer wanting to sell?

Q 15In Attack of the Clones, Anakin tells Padmé he dislikes what for being coarse, rough and irritating?
Sand
Sand. He is setting the desert world where he grew up a slave against the soft, smooth surroundings of her home, and the complaint doubles as his attempt to flirt with her.
Q 16In whose name was the clone army in Attack of the Clones secretly ordered?
Sifo-Dyas

Q 17By what Sith name is Sidious's apprentice known in Attack of the Clones?
Darth Tyranus
Darth Tyranus. It is Count Dooku's secret Sith name, and it slips out when the clones' template tells Obi-Wan he was recruited by 'a man called Tyranus'.

Christopher Lee
Christopher Lee. Then nearing 80, he fenced in the close-ups himself, and a stunt double took over for the shots that needed the most vigorous footwork.

Rose Byrne. She has only a brief appearance, yet in the year she filmed it she won best actress at the Venice Film Festival for The Goddess of 1967.
Q 25Jocasta Nu, sure that an unrecorded planet cannot exist, holds which Jedi Temple job?
Librarian
Librarian. Her boast that 'if an item does not appear in our records, it does not exist' is wrong: the missing planet had been erased from her archives, and Obi-Wan finds it anyway.
Q 26What kind of business does Dexter Jettster run on Coruscant?
A diner
A diner. Its four-armed cook, an old friend of Obi-Wan's, recognises the toxic dart at a glance after the Jedi Temple's own analysis droids had failed to match it to any known culture.
Q 27Which star met George Lucas about playing Anakin but declined, saying he wasn't ready to take that dive?

Leonardo DiCaprio. He later confirmed the meeting and called it the 'same scenario' as his one meeting with director Joel Schumacher about playing Robin, another franchise part he felt he wasn't ready for.
Q 28Which boy band filmed a cameo for Attack of the Clones that was cut in post-production?

Q 30The cloners in Attack of the Clones engineer their soldiers to do what at twice the normal human rate?
Age
Age. Growth acceleration turns an embryo into a combat-ready soldier in about ten years, which is how an army ordered only a decade earlier is standing ready when Obi-Wan arrives.
