‘Rogue One’ writer reveals the film could have ended with a wedding

TwitterFacebook

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story took a turbulent journey from page to screen, but we never realized how different things could have been. Screenwriter Chris Weitz revealed that before he joined the project, the story had a happy ending.

“The version prior to [my involvement] didn’t have everyone die. As a matter of fact, it ended with a wedding,” Weitz told CultPopture. “I think it was on the presumption that Disney wouldn’t allow characters to die with such abandon.”

More than two years after the film’s release, this is almost impossible to imagineRogue One ending with a joyful wedding???

“I had to keep the beard for something else,” said Hamill.

Curious, Kimmel asked that the “something else” happened to be. 

“Well it’s NDA, that’s non-disclosure agreement. Don’t quote me,” said Hamill.  Read more…

TwitterFacebook

One of the sadder parts of the new Star Wars trilogy is the fact that OG buddies Luke Skywalker and Han Solo never got to meet up before Han’s untimely death in The Force Awakens

Actors Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford, however, are alive and still friends even after being killed off in the series that made them famous. 

Hamill, who is an unyielding delight on Twitter, posted a picture of himself and Ford hugging and captioned it “What a Han/Luke reunion might have been like,” and with tens of thousands of RTs over just a few days, it’s clear Twitter had some feelings about it.
