Greedo actor Paul Blake reveals the existence of a shoot-out scene with Han Solo (Harrison Ford) that was deleted from Star Wars: A New Hope.
The character of Greedo was just a minor player in Star Wars: A New Hope – a Rodian bounty hunter in the employ of Jabba the Hutt, Greedo met his unfortunate end at the hands of smuggler Han Solo, who blasted the green alien into oblivion in the back of the Mos Eisley cantina.
One of the actors who played Greedo, Paul Blake (for certain shots the character was played by actress Maria De Aragon), was recently asked to discuss the Greedo legacy and dropped a new bit of information about a lost scene that only adds to the legend of Han Solo and Star Wars.
Fans may think there would be nothing more to be revealed about Greedo, Han, Jabba or any of the major and minor characters who appeared in the Mos Eisley sequence of A New Hope, but that’s not the case.
