"Small bit on "A young captain" from Revenge of the Sith (from Sydney Australia)
The guy's name is Rohan Nicols. He's voiced a character in an pilot indie animation-comedy called "Big Space" about a bunch of Australians lost in space. The 'young captain' in question is Captain Antilles (Heffie note: Shit! Wedge's dad! Eee!), and I heard a a great story from the set about his first day of shooting.
Apparently, he cut himself shaving right before he was due to shoot. No one in makeup could stop it bleeding - big cut! Then he gets his call to get into a buggy and onto the other side of the set where George is waiting for him. Guy's waiting all his life to be in Star Wars, right? And now he's bleeding to death from the chin. All over his Captains Uniform.
He says to George... "Hi...here I am...but I cut myself pretty bad...so...what do you want me to do?"
Prolly expecting to be replaced, he waits while George looks him over. Finally GL says...
"Here's what we'll do. Get back to make up. I want cuts just like that one, but all over your face. What was your line?..
[THE LINE WAS DID YOU MET WITH ANY RESISTANCE / NO SIR, WE MET WITH NO RESISTANCE]
"OK, now your line is: YES SIR...WE MET WITH SOME RESISTANCE!"
We'll have to wait for the movie to see if that story is true or not, but if it isn't, don't you think it should be?
