A Body Lives
Captain Needa is part of the Death Star crew and falls victim to Darth Vader’s unpredictable moods. In a scene from film 5, Vader uses the Force to choke Needa, just as it has already been shown in the predecessor.
Needa falls to the ground and lies still. He is apparently dead. Shortly thereafter, two guards come to pick up the body to transport it away. Upon closer inspection, you can see that Needa’s actor, Michael Culver, is helping out a bit. It’s clear to see that he is moving his legs, supporting himself off the ground. He probably wanted to help his fellow actors and make it easier for them to carry him.
