Star Wars Video Games

5. Little Known Fact: The face of Stars Wars would be much different today if things had worked out slightly different. Had Carrie Fisher turned down the role of Princess Leia, Jodie Foster would have stepped in. Had Lucas cast an African American in the role of Han Solo, we all might know Billy Dee Williams as Han instead of Lando. Had Lucas gone with his first instinct, Alec Guinness would never have grown to hate Star Wars. Instead, Japanese actor Toshirô Mifune would have played Obi Wan. And, Orson Welles’ deep voice would have become synonymous with Darth Vader, instead of James Earl Jones.

61. Fast Fact: Luke’s Uncle Owen didn’t want Luke to know what his father really did or who his father really was. His only goal was to keep Luke as far away as possible from the Rebellion and the Force. When Luke asked what his father did, his uncle Owen always told him Anakin had been a navigator of a spice freighter.
