8 Star Wars Movies That Were Nearly Made

7. The Wookiee Movie

In a similar vein, Lucas had stated that he had come up with an idea exclusively about Wookiees; the race of hairy warriors of whom Chewbacca is the most eminent example. When he was done working on the outlines, Lucas understood that he had produced an excessive amount of material. He chose to adhere to a still monstrous and goal-oriented nine-part adventure: the original trilogy, some prequels, and a few sequels. The independent motion pictures including droids, Wookiees, and all other things didn’t “have anything to do with the Star Wars saga” and he expelled the ideas. In the event that you truly want to see a Star Wars project that features Wookiees predominantly, just watch The Star Wars Holiday Special from 1978. This is a theatrical presentation in which Chewbacca’s family, which showcases his spouse Malla, son Itchy, and father Lumpy hanging around their home on the planet Kashyyyk.




 

8. An Early Version Of The Force Awakens

Once Disney purchased the rights to Star Wars in 2012, it attempted to get another Star Wars motion picture into production as fast as possible. Disney roped in screenwriter Michael Arndt, who’d composed the scripts for Toy Story 3 and Little Miss Sunshine (for which he won an Oscar). Thereafter, Arndt left the venture in 2013 as J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan assumed control. That motion picture turned into The Force Awakens. Nevertheless, some of Arndt’s original concepts stay in the completed product. In fact, they are enough to procure him a co-writing credit. In his adaptation, Han and Leia were minor characters, while the new ones i.e. Han and Leia’s children, would have been the centre of attention.
