Eventually, infighting among the Hutts led to a devastating civil war known as the Hutt Cataclysms, which laid waste to the Hutts’ homeworld, Varl, and nearly took the Hutts with it. Swole Hutts in Modern CanonSwole Hutts, then, have become more commonplace in the modern, post-reboot Star Wars continuity, with Rotta becoming merely the latest in a line presenting a contrast to our typical vision of what Hutts look like. Swole Hutts and Star Wars‘ History With FatphobiaThe increased depiction of swole Hutts in Star Wars, especially to make them a contrasting design to the standard depictions of the species, does sit as part of a broader unfortunate Star Wars legacy: the franchise’s historical depiction of fat bodies, and typically how those portrayals play into shorthand for negative tropes.

Perhaps Rotta, Grakkus, and Bokku will simply be some of the first steps towards that kind of more nuanced depiction of Hutts.
