About
Jump to
Alan Norton Fletcher Webb (2 July 1906 – 22 June 1982) was an English actor. He was principally known as a stage performer, but made several film and television appearances. He seldom played leading roles, but was frequently cast in important character parts. He created roles in plays by A. A. Milne, Noël Coward, T. S. Eliot and other contemporary playwrights. Webb was initially cast as Emperor Palpatine in Richard Marquand's Return of the Jedi; however, he fell ill before he could fulfil the role and died months later. As a result of this, Ian McDiarmid, one of the many actors who were considered, got cast.
