A site called i09.com had released a long list of “10 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi.” This list shows 10 facts that could have changed the series in a hole other way, that includes the fact that Han Solo (played by Harrison Ford) was actually suposed to be killed off in The Return of the Jedi.
When Harrison Ford was contracted to be in the series he was in fact only suposed to be the in the first to movies. It turned out that George Lucas (the creator of Star Wars) actually managed to convince him to take part in the third film. It was though uncertain of how long he would be in the last part.
In an early version of the script, Ford actually wanted a scene where Luke would use the force to imprison Solo at the controls of his own ship, the Millennium Falcon. Ford actually pushed for Han Solo to die in the third movie, but George Lucas wouldn’t allow it. A strange thought that an actor would want to kill himself of in such a brutal way.
Now with that in mind you can all go even more crazy with the fan fiction!

Which of these facts do you think would have made the series better or worse?
That fact that Harrison Fords characther wasn't even supposed to be in the final episodes of the trilogy sucks! Han Solo was the relatable guy in the that univers, never having anything besides his smarts and his blaster.
