The 1990 tabloid series Inside Edition has released an old report they did from 1999, right before The Phantom Menace was released, that explores the question… is there a Star Wars curse?

The report dives into a lot of the problems that happened off screen in regards to the cast and crew. It talks about Mark Hamill’s major accident that left him needing nose surgery, Carrie Fisher’s battle with depression and addiction, George Lucas’ difficult divorce and even Billy Dee Williams’ being accused of roughing up his girlfriend.

It’s funny and ridiculous how they all chalk this up to a Star Wars curse. This is just life and sometimes shit happens. When shit happens to famous people, though, everyone knows about it.
