Peter Cushing as Grand Moff Tarkin in “Star Wars: A New Hope”
Peter Cushing played the villain Grand Moff Tarkin in “Star Wars,” however, off-screen the actor was much less intimidating.
You may have noticed that he was only shown from the waist up in the film, because Cushing had size 12 feet and the boots provided for his character didn’t fit him properly, causing discomfort. As a result, he wore slippers during filming.
