Guide sees stars after ‘Chewie’ headbutt
“Nobody tells this Wookiee what to do,” said “Chewie” from the Star Wars movies before slamming his head into the guide’s forehead.
The 1.96m tall, 44-year-old man was charged with misdemeanour battery and released on $20,000 bail. “Superman” and other film and cartoon character impersonators were rep-ortedly witnesses to the incident in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre amid concern that such behaviour could endanger their livelihoods. Street performers at the world-famous cinema collect tips from tourists by posing for photos, but some are known to turn hostile if they don’t get money.
