Star Wars: 14 Crazy Rumours Lucasfilm Started About The Empire Strikes Back In 1980

4. Leia Betrays Han And Luke

It appears that Miller came up with so many ridiculous alternate versions of The Empire Strikes Back that, rather than leaving them out, Starlog just listed the more bonkers ones at once - the article ends with a random collection of ideas. And some of them are just brilliant:

Princess Leia is captured by Stormtroopers and delivered to Darth Vader who, by use of the Force, seduces her into betraying Luke and Han.

The notion of betrayal is a common one in these theories (and, of course, was in the film with Lando, a character who is described pretty accurately here), but this one is one of the more out there ones. And, frankly, unbelievable - it reduces Leia to damsel in distress again.
