I believe he's mostly been involved in smaller productions. I can't say I've seen (or at least remember) any of his work outside of the Star Wars prequels.

I'm okay with this, I mostly enjoyed The Mandalorian, and still find myself excited for the small screen Star Wars projects. Not sure if it's been mentioned yet in the forums, but the new Star Wars animated show (Bad Batch) was announced and I've got high hopes for it. It's a spin off of characters introduced in the final season of The Clone Wars.
 
I'm not sure if it was him or the poor dialogue that made his acting seem subpar in Star Wars. Hopefully we'll see a better version of him in this series.
