Chewbacca Has Pneumonia
Peter Mayhew, the man behind the Chewbacca mask in the Star Wars movies, has been hospitalized for pneumonia. TMZ reports that Mayhew, 70, is expected to make a full recovery, and should be leaving the hospital soon. Mayhew can next be seen reprising his role as Chewbacca in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, on December 18th.
I love Peter Mayhew (and I am not a Star Wars fan). He does appearances as Chewbacca for sick kids in hospitals and I'm pretty sure he did a Make A Wish trip, too. He's had health problems all his life, I hope he gets well soon.
