==Behind the scenes== |
|
|
Jerjerrod was originally a more complex character. The novelization of ''Return of the Jedi'' implies that he was a ] who derived an inflated sense of his own power from brutalizing the Rebel Alliance. In earlier drafts, Jerjerrod was a full-fledged Grand Moff, the ''Star Wars'' universe's equivalent to a governor, and by far more powerful than he was in the finished movie. He was portrayed as an annoyingly smug and obnoxious ] whom Darth Vader loathed. The screenplay had Jerjerrod arriving on the ''Executor'' as the Emperor's personal emissary. Vader greeted him as "my lord", while ] and the Star Captains kneeled before him. Vader and Jerjerrod, however, quickly got into a heated argument. Jerjerrod ridiculed Vader's failure to turn ] to the ], and proceeded to openly insult the ]. Later in the script, it is revealed that the Emperor and Jerjerrod had conspired to turn Luke without Vader's knowledge. Upon finding out about this plot, Vader kills Jerjerrod. |
