– Han Solo
I just think Pilates Jedi sounds cool-
and I’ve certainly done my fair share of Slave Leia Pilates - and we have recently come to find Leia Organa was not just as strong as her brother Luke with the force- she did indeed complete Jedi training
After 10 years in the gold bikini- two of them on Valentine’s Day- I decided to break things up
Plus if I’ve learned anything from the last few years back in Gotham- if you need an anti-hero- ya betta become one! Heroes of all kinds are in short supply…
Before we get into today’s workout- let’s dive into some Empire Strikes & Han Facts
Harrison Ford was a carpenter before he went to Hollywood
He still practices carpentry as a hobby… this could be one of the ways he keeps trim and fit!
His divorce was the fourth most expensive celebrity divorce.
It was from Melissa Mathison and was 85 million bucks… and you thought your lawyer was expensive!!!!
Billy Dee Williams aka Lando and Harrison have an off screen bromance as well,
they are good friends. But Ford is known to be immensely private ands is rarely seen out and about for paparazzi or the press to speculate about… After an 85 million dollar divorce I might be too!!!
Ford has been the star in four out of 10 of the biggest blockbusters ever produced-
Star Wars , Raiders of The Lost Ark, Blade Runner and The Fugitive. I personally love them all but I bet you can guess my favorite :)
Fun Facts about The Empire Strikes Back
Did you know Indiana Jones is the real reason Han was frozen in black carbonate?
At the time of filming Raiders of The Lost Ark was rising in popularity- and while Carrie Fisher and Mark Hammill had signed on for another sequel- Harrison Ford had not. The producers were unsure if he would return due to ROLA grabbing too much of his time- and this gave them options had he froze them out…
The Shining increased Empires budget.
These two films were being hot in London at the same studio when a fire broke out on Kubricks. This cost almost 4 million more for George Lucas and co..
Not even the cast knew about Vader being Luke’s father
This plot twist was top top secret and was held under super tight lips
Hoth took place in winter in Norway-
the scene with Luke in the storm is a real storm. He was out in the cold while many of the crew was inside a hotel lobby!
Hans Famous Line- was Harrison Ford’s creation
The iconic “I Love You”- “ I Know” said by Leia and Han was had the insistent request of Ford.
