Jabba The Hutt’s Creation

Jabba the Hutt has been mentioned in Star Wars: A New Hope and fans have questioned if they will ever see him in person. In Return of the Jedi, George Lucas and Richard Marquand were adamant about bringing the evil criminal to the big screen. Jabba the Hutt was brought to life by Lucas’s trusty team of puppeteers, and due to the alien’s size, three people had to control the puppet at any given moment. One was in charge of the head, while the other two were in charge of the arms.

The Iconic Scene

The Empire Strikes Back’s game-changing twist has to be the most essential scene in the entire Star Wars franchise. It drastically transformed how viewers viewed the original Star Wars film and ended the tale on an enormous cliffhanger as Return of the Jedi approached. George Lucas managed to keep the revelation that Darth Vader is Luke’s father a secret from the whole cast and crew. He barely told Mark Hamill about this detail a few minutes before they shot the classic sequence.
