Peter Mayhew, who played Chewbacca in the original Star Wars, took to Twitter Thursday night and unleashed a veritable trove of annotated behind-the-scenes photos from the original trilogy. Some of these shots you'll no doubt recognize, but many of them were new to us like this ridiculously adorable photo of 11-year-old Warwick Davis! Fisher is probably confused by the fact that Davis is a little person, assumes he is 6 years. old. Meanwhile you know 11 year old Davis is like, "Oh yeah!"
