    Overview

    Count Dooku is a Star Wars character first introduced in Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones. He also briefly appears in Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith. He is portrayed by Christopher Lee. Count Dooku appeared in several video games, all related to the Star Wars prequel trilogy.

    In Brazil, he was renamed as Dookan because his name sounds similar to the Portuguese expression "do cu" (from the ass).

    In Film

    Count Dooku used to be a Jedi before becoming a Sith Lord and forming the Seperatist movement. He has a very prominent role in Star Wars Episode 2. He secretly prepares the Clone Wars and the eventual downfall of the Jedi for Emperor Palpatine.

    In Video Games

    Count Dooku appeared in all Star Wars video games that were set during Episodes 2 or 3 and during the Clone Wars. This means that Dooku has appeared in most recent Star Wars games. He appeared in the Star Wars Battlefront games as a "general" that could be played at certain times during matches.
