Misreported (Score 2)

I had a feeling this was being misreported when I read the original story, which featured this quote from Baker: "I'm not in the movie to the extent I was expecting and no one has really explained to me why..." Baker's statement implies that he knows he will be in *some* of Episode II but not as much as he would like. It wouldn't surprise me if someone just misheard or misinterpreted his statement at the beginning of all this. Likewise, the explanation on starwars.com, while not mentioning Baker's statement or the resultant confusion, has the answer between the lines: Baker will shoot his scenes when he "catches up with the Episode II production team in a few weeks" and that Kenny has always been "scheduled for a number of shots during the final week of shooting" - meaning he thought he was being left behind, and largely is, except for those few vital shots of R2 where his presence is required. At least that's what I gather.
