He's a wookiee of few words, but Chewbacca is one tough hero.

Entertainment Weekly released a new deleted scene from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." The scene is included in the upcoming 3D Collector's edition, which is available for purchase in November. The edition contains commentary from director J.J. Abrams and several deleted scenes not included in the previous DVD release.

This one features Chewbacca coming to Rey's rescue. Junk dealer Unkar Plutt finds Rey (Daisy Ridley) at Maz Kanata's castle and threatens to punish her for stealing the Millennium Falcon. Rey tries to fight back with her blaster, but Unkar overpowers her ... until the wookiee shows up and proves he isn't just a lovable furry sidekick:

It's an interesting scene, since it proves Han Solo's warning about messing with wookiees: "That's 'cause droids don't pull people's arms out of their sockets when they lose. Wookiees are known to do that."
