I wish they made a comic adaptation of this draft like they did of the rough draft of ANH (“The Star Wars”).
I agree, it would be an engaging read.
It is such a pity we did not get to her 2nd draft and a polish, that she was contracted to do for the Empire script. Before the cancer took her, just weeks after she turned that first draft in to George.
I hadn’t heard that about Leigh Brackett begin contracted for that. I thought it was just the one draft she actually did. It makes me wonder if Lucas gave her feedback, notes an ideas on the 1st draft, to do the 2nd draft. Or if her cancer was known at the time of handing her 1st draft in to him.
Where did you hear she was contracted to do a “2nd draft and a polish”?
