He re-edited in the 90s and added a stuff to cut his ex-wife off of future earnings. He did it out of spite, as she was a co-producer (I believe) on the originals.

I remember now, it' was editing. She helped edit the film, so by re-editing it, he could cut her out. Petty.

Sadly... it was her editing that saved that movie IIRC...

Had a director ever made a bigger name for himself off of so few films? In over 50 years he has directed only 6 films.

She does not have any producer credits on any of the Star Wars films.  Her only official credits were on A New Hope & Return of The Jedi as an editor (she won an Oscar for ANH).  She definitely did have an influence on the original trilogy but nothing official beyond that. 

The whole not doing it out of spite rumor has been around for ever (along with many others) but nobody can say for sure as the details of their divorce settlement have never been made public.  I tend to not put much stock in this one since a) he was tinkering with and re-releasing the movies since day one essentially (ANH was re-released in 78, 79, 81 & 82) and b) he had way more than just the Star Wars franchise making him money but he didn't stop working on those companies/films.  Depending on the terms of the settlement, she would have been entitled to money from that too as his ex according to California law (at least at the time).

I wish they would have kept the original plan of Wookies instead of God damn ewoks.

UofM is actually involved in this which is cool

 

The Mandalorian & Grogu Journeys to the Big Screen

Jodie Foster has shocked the “Star Wars” fandom by confirming she was offered the role of Princess Leia, but turned it down because she didn't want to break a contract she had with Disney. https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/pop-culture-news/jodie-foster-says-turned-princess-leia-role-star-wars-disney-contract-rcna134711

Now, you would think her portrayal of a 13yr old hooker in Taxi Driver would have broke her contract with Disney.
