Wookiees had an average lifespan of 400 standard years, and they appeared not to age over a span of fifty years.
Wookiees have a lifespan of several hundred years: Chewbacca is 200 years old during the original trilogy, and is still in his prime.
Character. Chewbacca, a 200-year-old Wookiee, becomes a young Han Solo's companion after they both escape Imperial captivity on Mimban.
Chewbacca's Age
According to official lore, Chewbacca was born 200 years before the Battle of Yavin. So, he's 200 years old during the events of Star Wars a.k.a. A New Hope.
How old is Chewbacca in the rise of Skywalker? Based on what's been said in previous films while taking the distance in years between them into consideration, Chewbacca is 234 human years old during the events of the most recent movie.
Why does Obi-Wan Kenobi age like that? Because he's not real, and is a fictional character played by different people. You see, Obi-Wan Kenobi is played by Alec Guinness in the original trilogy. Guinness was 62 when he filmed A New Hope, and he died in 2000.
This Wookie is named Black Krrsantan, who apparently has a history in the Star Wars comic books. Black Krrsantan was first introduced in 2015's Star Wars #15, and has since enjoyed a decent amount of action in the galaxy far, far away. In short: He really does operate like a dark-sided Chewbacca.
Due to the Wookiees' support the Jedi when Order 66 was issued, the Empire enforced a crackdown, with it taking several days of confusion to restore order in the city. The commando Triton Squad then began killing fugitive Wookiees throughout the forest before the Empire pulled out.
The Wookiee is 190 years old and owns it in this new bit from the upcoming movie Solo: A Star Wars story.
Gungi was a male Wookiee Jedi Padawan who trained to become a Jedi in the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars.
Zorba the Hutt's Revenge (1992), a young-adult novel by Paul and Hollace Davids, identifies Jabba's father as another powerful crime lord named Zorba and reveals that Jabba was born 596 years before the events of A New Hope, making him around 600 years old at the time of his death in Return of the Jedi.
Tarfful was a male Wookiee Chieftain of Kachirho and General who was an old friend of Chewbacca and fought in the Battle of Kashyyyk during the Clone Wars, at least until the battle ended during the start of the Great Jedi Purge.
Affiliation(s) Mallatobuck (meaning "beautiful singer" in Shyriiwook), also known as Malla, was a female Wookiee from Kashyyyk. She was the wife of Chewbacca, and mother of their son Lumpawaroo.
Yoda. Yoda was a wise, experienced, and powerful Grand Master of the Jedi of an unknown species and the oldest known prophet in existence (having lived at least 900 years), considered the wisest and most powerful Jedi Master within the Star Wars universe.
With the death of T'ra Saa at Taivas, K'Kruhk became the oldest and most experienced of the surviving Jedi and participated in the alliance's final assault on the Sith-held Coruscant. Following the deaths of Darth Krayt and Roan Fel, K'Kruhk became one of the three Triumvirs of the restored Galactic Alliance.
Depicted in the 1999 novel The New Jedi Order: Vector Prime by R.A. Salvatore, the death of Chewbacca was the first major loss of a main character from the Original Trilogy films to take place in Star Wars. It was as shocking as it was unexpected, a heroic but tragic end for the beloved Wookiee.
With Palpatine's final reintroduction into The Rise of Skywalker, his exact age becomes a little more complicated. The movie takes place in 35 ABY, meaning the Sith Lord had made it to the ripe old age of 119.
After 30 years, this is followed by the sequel trilogy, which is similarly short, covering only around a year from Star Wars: The Force Awakens to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, during which time R2 would be about 66 to 67 years old.
Yoda survived, however, with the help of natives Chewbacca and Tarfful, who used a hidden shuttle to evacuate the Jedi Master from the planet.
There are no Wookiee Sith. If you read the “Behind the Scenes” section of the starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wookiee/Legends page, you will note that Lucas decreed that there would be no more Wookiee force users introduced after 2003 unless he approved.
Like many other humanoids, the Wookiees had two sexes, male and female. Female Wookiees had six breasts and gave birth to live young, with their gestation period nearly a year long. Wookiee pups were large at birth, averaging slightly less than one meter.
The Wookiee bounty hunter made his debut in Marvel's Star Wars: Darth Vader (2015) #1. Created by Kieron Gillen and Salvador Larroca, Krrsantan -- standing alongside Boba Fett --accepted a job from none other than Darth Vader in his very first appearance.
Lumpawaroo was the son of Chewbacca and his wife Malla. During the Age of the Empire, the Wookiees of Kashyyyk were enslaved by the Galactic Empire. When Lumpawaroo was young, he ventured down into the dangerous depths of Kashyyyk to find wasaka berries, which even adult Wookiees were reluctant to do.
