If behind-the-scenes stories are your jam, listen to this fantastic discussion with Jabba the Hutt sculptor, John Coppinger! When you first saw Jabba the Hutt in Return of the Jedi, did you have an instant reaction to his look? We can thank John Coppinger for being an intrinsic part of that response. He also puppeteered Jabba’s eyes on set every chance he got. What amazing stories! John also came back to work on, and perform, many characters in The Phantom Menace. His resume includes the first three Harry Potter films, The Fifth Element, The Dark Crystal and more.
You can even meet John Coppinger and get his autograph at Boonta Eve - the pre-Celebration Bash in London on April 6. Many thanks to Spencer Jawitz and Frank Rich for this discussion!
