StormHammer Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Perhaps they intentionally chose that actor for that role because of the passing resemblance. I mean...basically the Imperial forces are representative of the Nazis in WWII anyway. Right down to the use of the word Stormtroopers. Remember when SW was just a very rough cut...when they still had old WWII footage inserted for the X-Wing/TIE fighter conflicts? I wonder if any of the other characters resemble real-life people?

I think it's very posible that the casting was deliberate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Count Posted May 3, 2003 Author Share Posted May 3, 2003 That very maybe true about the casting, I thought about that aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertogJan Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Why would they cast someone who looks exactly like Goering?? You suspect George Lucas of being a Nazi or something ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
•-BLaCKouT-• Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Well, bear in mind that Michael Sheard who plays Admiral Ozzel, has also played Hitler on no less than 4 occasions, as well as playing Himmler 3 times. (it's all here folks ) And here And as for Mr Bronson... Let's just say I'm beginning to worry about the bloke... B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You suspect George Lucas of being a Nazi or something ?? no, we don't think George was a Nazi. we think he may have cast actors who look like Nazis to play the Imperials. George may have been trying to link the two, Imperials=Nazis, or something of that sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
