This Star Wars Deleted Scene Would Have Completely Changed The Movies

Less than a month after the release of the Rise of Skywalker, the movie that promised to tie up four decades of Star Wars and give fans ending they so richly deserved, Chewbacca’s come back to stir up debate.
Joonas Suotamo, the former professional basketball player who plays Chewbacca, was interviewed by the Hollywood reporter about a controversial scene from The Force Awakens. After most of the drama of the film has already taken place, when Chewie, Rey, Finn and Poe, return, sans Han Solo, from the fight with Kylo Ren, Leia and Rey hug.
Although it seems like an innocuous moment–a touching one, even–that’s not how the fans felt. There’s nothing wrong with the hug that did happen, it’s the hug that didn’t happen that’s got everyone so riled up. When she’s walking towards Rey, Leia ignores her old friend (and Han Solo’s best friend) Chewbacca. Fans were appalled that Princess Leia would ignore the Wookie who just lost his best friend in favour of someone she’s never even met.
It’s a fair enough criticism and the filmmakers took note. At the end of the next movie, they added in a split-second hug between the Princess and the Wookie. But according to Suotamo, they filmed a “consolation scene” for The Force Awakens, but it didn’t even make it onto the DVD. Would the movie have been better with the deleted scene?
