You have more screentime for the Crimson Corsair or Lor San Tekka, Max von Sydow’s character, in these new adventures than in the actual movie. Star Wars mythology, perhaps? You’re getting to tell new stories for characters who have only appeared in one story so far - and, in some cases, barely. I think the word canon is a strong one to use. If you watch the movie, it’s not like they’re little Lego people. Talking of things being daunting, you’re adding to Star Wars canon with this game. Even if it’s all signed, sealed and delivered when we go into the session, there’s a little bit of leeway there.
They’ve been playing the characters onscreen, so they all tweak it to be more like the way that character would speak. So I would meet him before the sessions and we’d do rewrites because he knows the character best. Nobody knows C-3PO better than Anthony Daniels, because C-3PO has always been Anthony Daniels. For example, with Anthony Daniels, it’s Anthony Daniels doing C-3PO. They all kind of make it their own in the sessions. If ever there was a time when you’d want to rework everything right up until the last moment … I would hate to go into the recording sessions and hear, “I don’t think these are called ‘Rafters,’ I think they’re called Rathtars.” That’s a moment where you think, I’m really glad that everyone at Lucasfilm was looking at this script and giving it the a-OK before we record things. But in terms of how the cast falls into place, you’re not always sure who’s going to be saying these lines - and then it turns out to be, oh, it’s everyone from the movie. It is slightly paralyzing because you realize, that’s an awful lot of responsibility on your shoulders. ( Laughs.)ĭid you know that would be the case while you were working on the game? I imagine it would be daunting, to say the least. If you’d told me 10 years ago that I’d be writing dialogue for Han Solo, and it would be performed by Harrison Ford, I’d be all, “Get out of town and keep going out of town” in very strong terms.
It is kind of crazy that, basically, everyone is back to reprise their roles. There’s a lot of cache in putting out a Lego game, you cannot underestimate that, but I also imagine lots of lawyers talking and pushing out contracts to make it happen. Everyone came back to record their lines.
