New footage from the original "Star Wars" films has been leaked online.
According to Live Leak, "A Star Wars fan bought a LaserDisc off eBay and payed $699 for 30 minutes of never before seen footage. It contains 50 raw and behind-the-scene takes from 'Return of the Jedi.'"
Another scene showcases Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew) sticking his arm in Obi-wan Kenobi's face during a scene onboard the Millennium Falcon. Actor Alec Guiness' reaction is priceless.
The ensuing scene shows a blaster fight between Han Solo and a few storm troopers. An explosion takes place that breaks a hole in a wall. However, the troopers struggle to get through the space and even trip over it.
Another clip features Harrison Ford forgetting his line briefly, while in the Millennium Falcon cockpit.
Mark Hamill, who plays Luke Skywalker, forgets a line as well and then asks how to pronounce "Supernova."
Another video showcases Yoda's death, with lines that were cut out of the film.
The "Star Wars" franchise is currently undergoing a resurgence. "Episode VII" is slated to go into production in early 2014 and will be released in 2015. Michael Arndt was originally hired to write the script but was replaced by Lawrence Kasdan and J.J. Abrams. Abrams has been hired to direct the movie and Kathleen Kennedy is the producer.
There has been no news on who will star in the film, but rumor has it that Hamill, Ford, and Carrie Fisher will reprise their roles from the original trilogy films.
