The Story of the Faithful Wookiee Plot and Cast
First broadcast in November 1978 as part of The Star Wars Holiday Special, this Nelvana-animated cartoon follows Chewbacca and C-3PO on a Rebel supply run that ends in a crash on a hostile planet. They fight off strange creatures and Imperial forces, and bounty hunter Boba Fett arrives to help—marking his first appearance in Star Wars, two years before The Empire Strikes Back. Within the special, the cartoon is a video watched by Chewbacca’s family on Kashyyyk during Life Day, and it has often circulated on its own.
