Hehe, that was me first thought on that foto too. Then I looked at the things in the background (Am I the only one looking at the stuff in the background? ;) They seem to be high up somewhere, no?

That big blank thing looks like either a stand-in for Jabba's sailing barge, or the uncompleted set for the side of it.

They are snoozing on the set of the top of the sail barge...Probably up on a platform like the skiff in the background.

Yes, I'm queer.

Proof that there were more than 2 Star Wars movies.

This, and the drunken Ewoks on the Today Show last weekend.

And the stunt double's name is...?

According to IMDB, Sandi Gross.

Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) (stunt double: Princess Leia) (uncredited) (stunt performer) (as Sandra Gross)

How do you wind up being uncredited with the wrong name? That seems like a paradox.

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

IMDB chooses a single name for each person across all works, and adds "(as Whoever)" when they are credited as something else.

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

Right -- when they are credited. When you are uncredited, however, you are not credited, unless I've completely lost grasp of the English language.

What appears to be happening, without bothering to re-watch the end credits of Return of the Jedi to verify, is that somebody is trying to distinguish between being credited as stunt performer as opposed to being crediting as somebody's stunt double, which is, uh, important somewhere to someone, I'm sure. The metal bikini is involved, after all.

Yes, but if she was uncredited, she wouldn't be "as Sandra Gross".

This very authoritative source claims that Tracy Eddon is the one depicted. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Slave_Leia_costume.

IMDB, however, only credits her with being C3-PO's stunt double.
