Toad from Star Wars. List of Star Wars characters

The character of the Star Wars movie saga, created by the director and screenwriter. A gangster from the planet Nal Hutta, a huge non-humanoid alien from the Hutt race, less than four meters tall, similar to a slug or a toad with orange eyes. Hermaphrodite - has the sexual characteristics of a male and a female at the same time. Belongs to the Hutt clan.

History of creation

The concept of Jabba the Hutt changed from one film to another as the film industry grew and developed and new opportunities arose. Jabba was originally conceived by George Lucas as a furry, Wookie-like creature. Then came the concept of Jabba as a fat, slug-like creature with a huge, ugly mouth, eyes, and tentacles.

Invited to play Jabba, actor Declan Mulholland read out the character's lines during filming. The actor was dressed in a fluffy brown suit, and at the post-production stage they had to replace the person with a character created using puppet animation. The scene involving Jabba was supposed to be an important plot point, but George Lucas ended up cutting it out of the movie due to budgetary and time constraints.

In 1997, while working on the anniversary edition of A New Hope, George Lucas brought the scene back, and the broken narrative sequence was restored. Technology at that time made it possible to realize the image of Jabba at a higher level than in 1977. In 2004, during the next re-release, the scene was again finalized, and the appearance of the villain was further improved.

"Star Wars"

Jabba was first mentioned in Star Wars: A New Hope, episode IV, released in 1977. Jabba is an episodic character there - a crime boss and the leader of a gang of smugglers on the planet Tatooine. The smuggler pilot owed Jabba a tidy sum of money for failing to deliver the smuggled cargo.

Han Solo was supposed to bring a cargo of a banned drug to Jabba from an asteroid, but an Imperial patrol landed on the tail of Solo's ship. Solo chose to drop the dangerous cargo. Enraged, Jabba placed such a tempting bounty on Han Solo's head that every bounty hunter in the universe began chasing him.

In 1980, Jabba's name resurfaces in Episode V "The Empire Strikes Back". Han Solo never returned the favor, and Jabba sends a bounty hunter to search for the debtor, promising a decent jackpot for Solo's capture. Later, Han Solo is captured, and he sends the hero to Jabba, having previously frozen in carbonite so that Solo does not escape. Solo's friends at the end go to the rescue in order to snatch the hero from the clutches of Jabba.

The third film, Return of the Jedi, released in 1983, used a complex animatronic puppet to create Jabba's screen image. In the first film in 1977, Jabba the Hutt was played by Irish actor Declan Mulholland, dressed in a fluffy suit. But the scene where he appears was cut from the final version of the original film. In the 1997 re-release of A New Hope, the Jabba scene was returned, but the live actor was replaced with a CGI image and the voice was re-dubbed. The new Jabba spoke in a fictitious language of the Hutts.

In a cut scene, Jabba, accompanied by gangsters, arrives at the hangar where Han Solo is holding the ship. Jabba demands that the hero return the value of the lost cargo. Han Solo promises that he will return the money as soon as he receives payment for a new job. Han Solo was in the process of delivering , and their droid companions to Alderaan.

Jabba demands that Solo return with the money as soon as possible, and threatens to unleash all the criminals in the galaxy on Solo if he doesn't. Solo, however, would never fulfill his obligations to Jabba.

In the first part of Return of the Jedi, Jabba mocks numerous servants and assigns a generous reward to anyone who drags Han Solo's head to his feet. Bandit Boba Fett brings Han Solo to Jabba, and the crime boss exposes the frozen hero as part of an exhibit in his own throne room.

However, Han Solo's friends are on the alert and rush to help. They manage to infiltrate Jabba's palace, but luck turns away from the heroes. she herself is captured by Jabba, and the villain turns the girl into slavery. The gangster attempts to take down Luke Skywalker when he arrives to make a deal with Jabba to free Han Solo.

Under the throne room is a pit where a monstrous monster sits, and Luke is thrown into it. The hero destroys the monster, but Jabba doesn't stop there. A giant worm-like creature lives in the Dune Sea on Tatooine, and Jabba decides it would be a good idea to feed Luke and Han Solo to the monster.

However, the heroes manage to defeat Jabba's guards, and the villain himself is killed by Princess Leia during the confusion. Jabba is overtaken by a very symbolic death - Leia strangles him with slave chains. Jabba's sailing barge explodes and everyone on board is killed. However, Leia, Luke and the rest of the heroes manage to escape.

In the 1999 prequel The Phantom Menace, Jabba can be seen in a Podrace sequence. The villain sits on the podium, surrounded by henchmen, and is not at all interested in what is happening. Eventually Jabba takes a nap and misses the race finale.

Jabba the Hutt is depicted in the movie saga as a big crime boss, constantly surrounded by a retinue of bodyguards and smaller gangsters who work for him. Jabba is about six hundred years old. In submission to the villain are numerous assassins, smugglers and bounty hunters. The character stands at the center of the criminal empire he rules.

On the desert planet Tatooine, Jabba has his own palace, where numerous slaves, droids and all kinds of alien creatures serve the criminal. Jabba loves to torture those who turn up at hand, is not indifferent to young slaves and plentiful food, and is fond of gambling.

Full biography

The son of a major clan leader and a representative of an ancient family of criminal tycoons, Jabba sought to become equal to his father. By the year 600, Jabba (whose Huttian name is Jabba Desiliyik Tiure) was at the head of a large criminal empire. Together with his vast fortune, Jabba flew away from the estate of his father Zorba the Hutt (Zorba the Hutt) to Nel Hutt to Tatooine, where he settled in a palace built on the ruins of the ancient monastery of the monks of B "Ommar.

The sour atmosphere of Jabba's palace soon attracted many unscrupulous villains who flocked to the fortress to drink and eat, have fun and find work. Thieves, smugglers, assassins, spies, and all sorts of criminals have always been around Jabba. He soon became involved in all kinds of criminal activity in the Outer Worlds, including smuggling, the glitterstim spice trade, the slave trade, assassinations, debt collection, racketeering, and piracy.

Pursuing his illegal activities, Jabba once hired a smuggler named Han Solo to deliver glitterstim spice from Kessel, where it was mined in the mines under the Imperial Correction Facility. After Solo dropped a load of glitterstim to get through the Imperial cordons, Jabba sent several bounty hunters to look for the pilot. Solo killed Greedo, one of Jabba's close friends, but was unable to escape the Hutt. Jabba met with Solo on Tatooine, but allowed him and his co-pilot Chewbacca to fly passengers to Alderaan in exchange for the proceeds from the flight. Solo did not return. Enraged, Jabba posted a massive reward for the smuggler, dead or alive.

After some time, Boba Fett delivered Jabba Solo, frozen in carbonite, but alive. Soon after, Khan's friends infiltrated Jabba's palace to rescue the smuggler. Jabba captured Princess Leia and put her on a chain, and then tried to feed Luke Skywalker first to his pet rancor and then to the Sarlacc. Standing on the edge of the Great Sinkhole of Karkoon, Luke escaped death with the help of his Jedi skills, and a fight broke out between the rebels and Jabba's men. In the fight, Jabba found his death at the hands of Leia. Moments later, most of his henchmen were killed in a sailing barge explosion set off by Luke and Leia. The rest of Jabba's fortune passed to his father Zorba, who vowed revenge on Leia and her friends.

Behind the scenes

The filmmakers worked on Jabba's appearance for a very long time before he could appear in the original Return of the Jedi in his final form. In his first incarnation, appearing in the novelization of A New Hope, the crime lord is described as "a moving carcass of muscle and fat, surmounted by a rough, scarred skull...". A scene was also filmed for A New Hope as the Hutt talks to Han Solo as he leaves Mos Eisley. In this scene, Jabba was played by a large man (Declan Mulholland) in fur clothes. Lucas intended to cut the actor out and replace him with some kind of mechanical creation, but the necessary technology was not available. Therefore, the scene was cut completely.

Ralph McQuarrie, Nilo Rodis-Jamero, and Phil Tippet collaborated with Lucas on Jabba's appearance for Return of the Jedi. Before coming to a final decision, they made over 76 sketches. Macquarrie first envisioned Jabba as a monstrous and agile primate resembling a giant ape, while Rodis-Jamero saw him as a refined, sophisticated humanoid. Tippett suggested the idea of ​​a huge slug. He came up with eight looks for Jabba, with early versions having several pairs of arms.

English studio Stuart Freeborn needed two tons of clay and 600 pounds (270 kilograms) of latex to make Jabba the Hutt. It was a giant puppet 18 feet (5.5 meters) long, controlled from the inside by three puppeteers. Two of them each moved one of Jabba's arms, and the third moved his tail. Two employees were responsible for the movements of Jabba's eyes (which were controlled by wires), and also inflated and deflated air bubbles under the skin of the Hutt, giving his face a variety of expressions. In addition, during the filming, Jabba constantly needed a make-up artist.

For the special edition of A New Hope, Lucas, armed with digital technology, returned to the scene of Jabba's first appearance in Mos Eisley. A fully computerized Jabba replaced Declan Mulholland in a "talk" with Harrison Ford.

"If I told you half of what I've heard about this Jabba the Hutt, you'd probably have a short circuit!"
- C-3PO tells R2-D2 about Jabba

P The full name of Jabba the Hutt is Jabba Desilijk Tiure, he was a representative of the Hutt race and eventually managed to become one of the most powerful criminals in the galaxy. Jabba managed to build his own criminal organization, which he placed on a remote planet called Tatooine. Its base is located in the ancient monastery of B'omarr, where it was very difficult for a simple layman to get into. Jabba was engaged in any activity that could bring a solid income. He was not at all shy about smuggling, distributing various drugs, committing murders, piracy, extortion and the slave trade.

While on Tatooine, Jabba the Hutt took bets on podrace races, but he often lost because his personal astromech droid made incorrect recommendations. In truth, Hutt had little to no interest in sports per se, he was only interested in profit. This caused him to occasionally fall asleep during races. However, he was always located in the best places and often opened the race. Yet Jabba was never a complete loser, even when he was losing substantial sums. There have always been people who lost much more than the king of the underworld, Tatooine. Hutt has always made money on the races, receiving either loans or young slaves.

After some time, a young and incredibly talented smuggler named Han Solo caught the eye of Jabba the Hutt. Gangster Tatooine was impressed by the courage and determination of the man in matters of illegal cargo transportation, so much so that he decided to hire Khan to work. Solo agreed to Jabba's offer, after which he began to transport an illegal drug called "Spice" throughout the galaxy.

While on a mission to transport a banned substance, Han Solo collided with an Imperial flagship in his ship, the Millennium Falcon. In order not to be arrested, the smuggler had to throw the entire cargo overboard. Jabba the Hutt was so upset by the lost profits that he sent a mercenary named Greedo after Khan. Solo managed to kill a member of the Rodian race, after which Jabba met Khan near his ship.

speaks out his grievances to Han Solo

The smuggler managed to convince the king of the underworld, Tatooine, that he would be able to pay off the entire debt and even pay an additional 15% of the entire debt. Jabba was good at counting money and gladly agreed to the man's condition. When the debt came due, Khan never showed up, and Jabba realized that the smuggler had deceived him again. The Hutt gave his mercenaries the task of finding Solo throughout the galaxy, but delivering him to the palace in order to personally punish the man. Meanwhile, Han Solo and his friends were captured by Darth Vader in Cloud City. The smuggler's best friend, Lando Calrissian, betrayed his comrade and handed him over to the Empire. Solo was frozen in carbon, and Vader handed him over to the mercenary Boba Fett in gratitude. The criminal delivered the frozen man to Tatooine, where he handed over to Jabba the Hutt.

The main criminal of Tatooine was very pleased with such a gift. He placed Khan in his residence, where he watched him every day. Meanwhile, Solo's friends did not sit idly by. The droids C-3PO and R2-D2 went to Jabba to deliver a message from the Jedi Luke Skywalker, who offered the Hutt robots to replace Solo. The gangster refused Luke's offer, but still took the droids for himself.

Princess Leia soon arrived at Jabba, disguised as a bounty hunter. The girl brought the captive Chewbacca to the Hutt, whom the criminal imprisoned in a cell. Disguised as a mercenary, Leia stayed at Jabba's residence. At night, she made her way to carbon and freed Han Solo. At that moment, the Hutt's penetrating laughter rang out. He guessed that the whole performance was meant to be a distraction. Jabba threw the smuggler into Chewbacca's cell, and he ordered Leia to undress and put on her slave costume. His previous slave was fed to the terrible creature Rancor. According to the Hutt, Leia should have been an ideal replacement for his previous assistant. Some time later, Luke Skywalker arrived on Tatooine to provide Jabba last chance, however, the king of crime only laughed at such an offer and refused to fulfill the will of the Jedi. Luke used the Force to draw a blaster towards him to attack, but the Hutt managed to react in time, causing Skywalker to fall towards the terrible creature Rancor.

Princess Leia strangles Jabba the Hutt with a chain

Outwardly, Jabba the Hutt resembles not so much a powerful crime boss as a cave monster; Behind the unsightly appearance, however, lies an impressive business acumen, coupled with general cruelty, making the Hutt a powerful adversary. Since its release in 1983, the Hutt has become one of the most memorable characters in the entire Star Wars universe.

Jabba the Hutt is a fictional alien from George Lucas' Star Wars film series and a number of spin-offs. It is a huge slug-like alien; the famous film critic Roger Ebert (Roger Ebert) has been described as a mixture of a toad and the Cheshire Cat.

Jabba the Hutt first appeared on the screen in 1983, in the third part of the "classic" Star Wars, the movie "Return of the Jedi" ("Return of the Jedi"). It should be noted that the Hutt was mentioned in the first films of the series, but he did not have to personally appear before the audience right away. Jabba was a powerful crime lord from the planet Tatooine, who controlled an entire criminal empire of various kinds of criminals, smugglers, assassins and mercenaries. On Tatooine, Jabba lived in his own palace, where he indulged in his favorite pastimes - gambling, torture, sumptuous meals and abuse of slaves. The main characters were brought to the Hutt's palace by a harsh necessity - they went to rescue their friend Han Solo, who was captured by Jabba's agent in the previous film. On behalf of the Hutt, mercenary Boba Fett managed to track down and neutralize Solo; encased in carbonite, the smuggler was paraded in the Mafiosi's throne room. The plan to save Khan did not go as easily as the heroes had hoped; Princess Leia Organa was captured and became one of Jabba's slaves, and Luke Skywalker was thrown into a pit by a monstrous rancor. The Jedi managed to defeat the monster, but the misadventures of the heroes did not end there - Jabba ordered the captives to be thrown to the giant desert monster sarlacc. The planned execution, however, Jabba failed - the battle that broke out ended in the flight of the main characters. Leia managed to strangle Jabba herself with her own shackles; later, after the heroes had fled, Jabba's barge exploded, presumably killing everyone on it.

With his death, the story of Jabba seemed to have ended, but in 1997 the space gangster returned to the screens in a modified version of the film "New Hope" ("New Hope"). Jabba's line in this film began with the conflict between Han Solo and the alien mercenary Greedo (Greedo) - costing the latter his life. During the conversation, Greedo mentioned that Jabba had little regard for the smugglers who dropped their assigned cargo at the first appearance of Imperial cruisers on the horizon. Apparently, Khan was previously hired by Jabba to smuggle an illegal drug spice from the asteroid Kessel; Khan, however, was unfortunate enough to stumble upon the Imperial spaceships - and just in case, he dropped a dangerous cargo into space. As Greedo himself had warned Solo, Jabba was quite capable of placing such a price on the head of a smuggler that mercenaries from all over the galaxy would open the hunt for him. Later in the film, a scene cut from the original version was shown - Jabba and a group of his mercenaries looking for Han Solo in a hangar near the Falcon. Meeting with Solo, Jabba confirmed everything Greedo had said earlier and demanded that Khan pay for the lost cargo. Solo does not argue with the gangster, promising to return the money after the delivery of a new cargo - which, by the way, are Leia, Luke and Obi-Wan Kenobi (Obi-Wan Kenobi). The gangster agrees to a delay, but in case of deceit, he really promises to set a huge price for Khan's head. Subsequently, Jabba Solo fails to pay off - which leads to subsequent events.

In 1999, the film "The Phantom Menace" ("Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace"); its plot unfolds even before the events of the original trilogy, but Jabba still has a place in it. This time the Hutt plays a relatively small role and acts more like a gift to the fans; he organizes the very race in which Anakin Skywalker wins his freedom and, despite the position of the organizer, shows practically no interest in what is happening, even openly falling asleep at the very end.

IN animated film 2008 "The Clone Wars" ("Star Wars: The Clone Wars") Anakin and his student Ahsoka (Ahsoka Tano) again have to deal with Jabba. The Separatists, who want to quarrel with the Republic and the Jedi, kidnap Jabba's son, Rotta (Rotta). The heroes manage to save Rotta and bring him back home; in gratitude, Jabba guarantees Republic ships free passage through his territory. Jabba later returns in the Clone Wars television animated series. In one of the episodes, Jabba has to deal with an alien whose daughters are kidnapped by a mercenary Greedo; The Hutt willingly allows a blood sample to be taken from Greedo for comparison, but the cowardly behavior of the mercenary already betrays him as a kidnapper. In another episode, Jabba hires a certain Cad Bane to obtain plans for the Senate building; Bane copes with the task, after which the Hutt sends him to rescue his own uncle Ziro the Hutt from prison. The latter, most likely, is the decision not so much of Jabba himself, but of the Hutt Council as a whole - Jabba himself does not have particularly warm feelings for his uncle, remembering the role he played in the kidnapping of Rotta. Zero fails to run far; Jabba's uncle's death causes genuine joy, after which he pays separately for the delivery of his now deceased relative's holo-diary. In the future, the Hutts have to deal with the Collective of Shadows; Darth Maul, Savage Opress ( Savage Opress) and Pre Vizsla (Pre Vizsla) are trying to enlist the support of gangsters. Unable to pay for the services of the Hutts, they try to threaten the Council - and in return receive a visit from a team of unfriendly mercenaries. Later, agents of the Collective of Shadows turn to Jabba again, already in his palace on Tatooine - and impressed by their tenacity, the slug-like gangster promises his support and agrees to form an alliance.
