10 Best Star Wars Deleted Concept Art Scenes They Never Filmed
4. A Troll Attacks The Ewoks - Return of the Jedi
You read that right. There was once a world when an already surreal series of events took a turn for the barmier during the finale of the Original Trilogy.
Judging from early art designed for the film that would eventually take on the moniker of Return of the Jedi, our heroes’ adventure on the forest moon of Endor would’ve likely hit one giant green speed bump at one point in the day. And no, I’m not talking about alternate version of Han Solo.
Said concept art designs involved what appears to be a giant green troll showing up to the Ewoks’ tree village to cause a little mayhem. Though we didn’t actually get to see Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewie take on this freakish beast in the sixth episode, the idea of a green troll-like alien wasn’t entirely scrapped from the Star Wars universe after this art was left out of the flick.
Instead the lesser-watched Ewoks animated series let loose a devious species known as the Duloks that massively resembled this concept art monstrosity.
