I guess Lucas was checking off boxes back in the 80’s too?
I never even noticed this trio of ladies in the briefing scene before. They look like they stopped by from a World War One movie being filmed next door…
JEDIT:And never noticed the female B-Wing(?) pilot on the left either!
Nor this other woman standing behind Ackbar…
And just when you thought there was only one black guy on Jabba’s payroll. 😉
