BEHIND THE SCENES: KNEEL BEFORE STAMP!


On set for only a couple of days (mostly for filming against blue screen), but providing subtle, vital story drama as the STAR WARS saga's first Chancellor of the Republic, Finis Valorum- a good man betrayed and ousted from his position by his "friend" Palpatine, iconic British actor Terence Stamp (perhaps best known to fantasy fans as the evil General Zod in the Christopher Reeve SUPERMAN films) makes a quiet impression in the all-important first Prequel film, and on set with George Lucas.

Backstage at Leavesden with Natalie Portman and Ian McDiarmid.

Check out the AFICIONADO original fiction story leading up to the events of EPISODE I- Prelude to Armageddon- here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B80ITjM31EVRc3g5TENGaXYza0k/edit?usp=sharing

In the Expanded Universe, Valorum was ultimately murdered in a terrorist incident-schemed by Darth Sidious, though he will be making an appearance of some kind in an upcoming completed Season Six episode of THE CLONE WARS.
