Chewbacca

According to reports, police in New Orleans are looking for a street performer that is accused of stabbing someone in the French Quarter over the weekend. Identifying the alleged has been difficult for authorities, as he was dressed as Chewbacca at the time of the incident.

The family of Peter Mayhew announced that the man behind Chewbacca in Star Wars has died at his home surrounded by family.

It’s the Friday before Christmas. Those of us who aren’t currently concealing the fact that we’ve slumped over at our desks in a eggnog-hangover-induced nap have glued our eyes to the clock, counting down the minutes to a leisurely holiday break. Everyone just wants to get home, gather with family or other loved ones around a crackling fire, put on the musical stylings of Burl Ives or Bing Crosby, and have a nice mug of hot cocoa. Time slows to a crawl on the Friday before a long weekend, and we both know you’re not getting any work done today, so why not kick back with the soothing sounds of Chewbacca moaning out a classic Christmas standard?

Dubbed "Cokebacca," this can gets the "Ggggrrroowwwrrrhhmmmm" just right!

A Ukrainian man dressed as Star Wars character Chewbacca was arrested for not having his ID on him, and his van that he was driving Darth Vader around in wasn't properly parked.

Peter Mayhew, best known as the actor who plays Chewbacca in the Star Wars films, was stopped by TSA agents at Denver International Airport for having a lightsaber cane.

In a reunion almost 30 years in the making, it seems that ol' Han Solo and Chewbacca did not part on the best of terms. Last night, Harrison Ford was on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" to promote his new movie "Cowboys & Aliens". Chewie stops by and sets a fire off in Ford. We also see what "Dr. Jones" thinks of the new James Bond. Video after the jump.
