George Lucas With The Lead Actors
While Star Wars contains a lot of famous and cool-looking aspects, the saga would never have taken off if Han, Luke, and Leia hadn’t been there from the start. From the start, George Lucas recognized that their connection had to be exceptional if A New Hope was going to work. Han, Luke, and Leia are still considered as three of the most iconic heroes of all time, despite the passage of time.

Ian McDiarmid As Emperor Paltine
What would Star Wars be like if Emperor Palpatine didn’t exist? For Return of the Jedi, Ian McDiarmid was cast as the dark lord of the Sith. Despite the fact that McDiarmid was only in his late 30s at the time, makeup technicians were able to convert him into an ancient-looking, decaying evil. According to him, applying all of the makeup and prosthetics took at least four hours. The Dark Side has never appeared so ominous.
