Marcia Lucas, who won an Oscar for editing “Star Wars,” directed by her former husband George Lucas, has died from cancer. She was 80.

“Marcia will be remembered as a brilliant storyteller, a trailblazer for women in film, a loving mother and grandmother, a generous host, and a loyal friend whose humor and sparkle filled every room she entered. Her influence on film is indelible, but those who knew her best will remember the way she made life feel more vivid, more beautiful, more fun, and more full of love,” the family statement said.

Rest in peace, Michael Pennington. 🕊️

Many fans around the world will remember him as Moff Jerjerrod in 'Star Wars: Return of the Jedi', the Imperial commander who oversaw the second Death Star and stood face to face with Darth Vader himself.

Though his screen time was brief, his presence became part of one of the most iconic chapters in Star Wars history.

But beyond the galaxy far, far away, Pennington was also a highly respected figure in British theatre. He built a remarkable career as an actor, director, and writer, earning admiration for his deep work in Shakespearean drama and classical performance.

He co-founded the English Shakespeare Company and spent decades inspiring actors, directors, and theatre lovers through his intelligence, discipline, and devotion to the craft.

Michael Pennington may be remembered by many as part of Return of the Jedi, but his legacy reaches far beyond Star Wars. His impact on theatre will continue to live on.

Philip Mortimer Brown, born on this date in 1916, was an American actor who played Luke Skywalker's Uncle Owen Lars in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope!

Brown's acting career extended back to the 1930s, including stage and film roles. In the 1950s, he was blacklisted during the McCarthy era, despite the fact that he was never a member of the Communist Party. Unable to find work in Hollywood due to the unfounded accusations, he relocated his family to England, where he built a successful acting and directing career over the next forty years.

Brown was cast by George Lucas in the role of Uncle Owen for Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope after he responded to a casting call in the U.K. seeking actors with strong American accents.

"[Owen] was a straight-forward curmudgeon – which I am anyway, so it was easy for me to play. I've been a curmudgeon for a long time."
―Phil Brown
