Behind the scenes[]

An early production sketch of Leesub Sirln
The Qiraash first appeared in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The first Qiraash to appear, Leesub Sirlin, was played by actress Pam Rose.[3] Originally identified only as "Weird Girl" in the production notes for Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, she was filmed in London as an extra for the cantina scene. She can be glimpsed briefly in the film just behind Kenobi and Skywalker in Chalmun's Cantina.[4] An early cut of the cantina sequence shows her more prominently, talking to Hrchek Kal Fas at the bar,[5] and a production photo shows her standing in front of the Millennium Falcon, but these images were never part of the film.[4]
