Behind the scenes

Jenny was named after the actress who portrayed her in A New Hope, Jenny Cresswell. Her character was intended to be seen flirting with Han Solo, but their scene together didn't make the final cut of the film. She can still be seen talking to a Rodian in the Mos Eisley Cantina in widescreen releases of the film (for example, at the far left of the shot at 45:05 of the Special Edition DVD).^[2]

In the novelization of the film, Han's companion is a humanoid woman described as having "a wide, if inhuman, grin."^[6]
