CLASSIC IMAGE: THE NABOO HATTER!


Ready for action, Captain Typho, as enthusiastically played by Jay Laga'aia, poses for a publicity image. Sadly, his EPISODE III contribution was cut down to a bare minimum, his final scene with Padme- escorting her and Threepio to her ship on Corsucant- literally downsized by an effects shot. Early storyboard pre-scripting ideas would see the character, and Padme's handmaiden bodyguards, brutally gunned down by enemy forces on what would become Mustafar, but this idea was dropped.

Doe Bies watches Anthony Daniels being costumed, whilst fellow cast take a breather.

A filmed scene eventually altered in EPISODE III post production.
