The famous Darth Vader suit was designed by production designer Ralph McQuarrie, who was concerned about the character being able to breathe while he was traveling from his spaceship to Princess Leia’s spaceship. Vaderĭarth Vader was the first character that George Lucas created for the story. Ultimately, though, George Lucas was won over by the charisma of Daniels’ reading of the part as a “snooty British butler” and so Daniels has done the voice for C3PO ever since. He only changed his mind after a suggestion by Stan Freberg, one of the actors considered as Daniels’ replacement Daniels’ voice was altered in post-production. George Lucas had not originally intended to use Anthony Daniels’s voice for the voice of C-3PO. C-3P0Ĭ-3PO was originally scripted as a “used car salesman” type, and designed after the robot from the Fritz Lang 1927 movie “Metropolis”. When the Special Edition came out in 1997, a sound effect had been added to the scene to accompany the head bump. When the storm troopers enter the room where C-3PO and R2-D2 are hiding, one of the actors accidentally bumps his head on the doorway due to his limited visibility. The longer sandtrooper weapon was the MG-34 machine gun from Germany. And that was as much as it was modified for the film. The curved left entry side mounted magazine was removed. The weapons the stormtroopers used were essentially the Sterling L2A3 9mm SMG (sub-machine gun) a military weapon developed in the late 1940s in the UK and adopted by the British and Canadian Armies in the 1950s. Therefore they have to switch grip of the weapon, which made them look left-handed. This construction caused it to hit the troopers in the chest. Their weapons are based on a real weapon, where the magazine is on left side of the weapons. That is because of how the weapons are constructed. Most of the Stormtroopers are left-handed. During these tests Lucas realized Ford was perfect for the role. Harrison Ford (who had played Bob Falfa in Lucas’s American Graffith) read the part of Han Solo for screen tests of other characters but wasn’t originally considered for the part. James Caan, Jack Nicholson, Robert De Niro and Burt Reynolds turned down the role. George Lucas also wanted to stay away from any actors he had previously used in his films. Kurt Russell, Nick Nolte, Christopher Walken, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, Chevy Chase, Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Robert Englund, Sylvester Stallone, John Travolta and Perry King were all candidates for the role of Han Solo. But after this he decided to make the role white. He auditioned several black actors and even musicians (including Billy Dee Williams) until finally settling on Glynn Turman. Then Lucas changed the idea of Han Solo to a black human. Han Solo, the Reptile Alien MercenaireĪt one point, George Lucas had planned the character of Han Solo to be a huge green-skinned monster with no nose and gills.
