Arthonon Hotshot Registered: 09/28/04 Posts: 6233 Loc: California	Apologies if these have been posted or are old news. The actual audition videos for some of the actors who did and didn't get the roles: Mark Hamil (with Harrison Ford) William Katt with Kurt Russel Kurt Russel and someone just reading lines, I guess _________________________ Ken Cartwright No single drop of rain feels it is responsible for the flood. http://www.techflyer.net

I think Kurt Russell could have made a good Hans Solo.

Even if later drafts exist, auditions tend to stick to either early drafts or even bits from other scripts that have similar characters rather than use the ones closer to the filmed versions.
