This Once-Lost Film From a Star Wars Legend Was 'The Empire Strikes Back's Dark, Fantastic Opener
The Star Wars universe is expansive, to say the least, but so are the behind-the-scene stories that helped build the franchise to legendary status. It's common knowledge that George Lucas was inspired to make his fairytale-in-space in the image of Akira Kurosawa's iconic film The Hidden Fortress, implementing similar power struggles and underdog characters. Fans are well aware that Harrison Ford wasn’t the initial choice for Han Solo, much like how Darth Vader’s true identity was kept secret from the cast and crew. However, Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back holds an even more shocking story that was once lost from the space saga forever!
