Jabba the Hutt is a character in the Star Wars movies.
Jabba is of the Hutt race, and like most of his species, he is a gangster. Hutts are a large slug-like race with thick, leathery skin, human-like arms, large dead-black eyes, and wide mouths. An adult Hutt may weigh in excess of several tons. The species displays apparent sexual dimorphism, with the males being larger than the females.
Prior to Episode 4 (A New Hope), Jabba sent Han Solo on a Kessel run to smuggle spice. However Han was forced to dump the spice when he was boarded by an Imperial starship. Jabba demanded that Han pay him the value of the cargo. When the smuggler failed to pay him back, he put a price on Han's head. Greedo attempted to collect the bounty, but was killed for his efforts. Jabba met Han in the Millennium Falcon's hangar bay, where he agreed to let Han go, in exchange for a premium of 20%. But that if Han delayed in payment again, he would have a price on his head so high that Han would not be able to go near a civilized star system.
The bounty was eventually collected, between Episodes 5 and 6, by Boba Fett.
In Episode 6, Return of the Jedi, Luke Skywalker entered Jabba's palace on Tatooine to free Han Solo. Jabba the Hutt was strangled by Princess Leia during the freeing of Han Solo from captivity.
