Star Wars Actor Drewe Henley (Red Leader) has just past away Starwarsunderworld.com reported that Star Wars actor Drewe Henley, the man who played Red Leader the X-Wing pilot from A New Hope, has just passed away at the age of 75. Here is Henley’s life story, in brief: Henley had a fantastic career which began back in the early 1960’s. He was known for his roles in films such as Nothing But The Best(1964) and When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth(1970), as well as several Television series including The Doctors and Space: 1999. Henley would go on to have a small but pivotal role in “Star Wars”, as it was know at the time, portraying pilot Garven Dreis. Dreis, who was acknowledged on screen as Red Leader, flew alongside Luke Skywalker(Mark Hamill), Wedge Antilles(Denis Lawson) and Biggs Darklighter(Garrick Hagon) amidst the Battle Of Yavin and through the iconic trench of the first Death Star. Shortly after appearing in Star Wars Henley was diagnosed with depression and he retired from acting, subsequently running a bed and breakfast with his wife. Here are some photos of Henley as Red Leader: What impressed me about Henley is his great acting skills. Though he’s gone I know that just like Dyson, he too will always be remembered in the hearts of many Star Wars...
Weird Al Yankovic: no new Star Wars parody song
Weird Al Yankovic: no new Star Wars parody song Starwarsunderworld.com reports that the legendary comedian-musician sensation Weird Al Yankovic isn’t going to be doing another Star Wars parody song of the Force Awakens. According to what Weird Al said in this article from Rollingstone.com: It’s a thought that crossed my mind, certainly, and everybody on my Twitter feed was like, “Oh! You have to do another Star Wars song.” In fact, a few years ago I teased, “You know, I do a Star Wars song every 20 years like clockwork. It could be about that time.” But I looked at it practically. I’ve already got two Star Wars songs in my set, both of which I pretty much have to play because of fan demand. If I had a third Star Wars song, it just sort of becomes the Star Wars show. So for that reason alone, I kind of feel like I probably should just keep it at two. Here’s a video his live performance of the two Star Wars parody...
