Did Kylo Ren Know Darth Vader’s Redemption?

Dave Filoni has a reputation for knowing Star Wars better than almost anyone. Across The Clone Wars, Rebels, and beyond, he’s the one people trust to keep the details consistent and the lore intact. Which is why this moment stands out. Because during one early recording session, it was Sam Witwer who caught something Filoni …

Not long after Revenge of the Sith, Darth Vader came dangerously close to young Leia Organa on Alderaan. He did not know she was his daughter, but the situation was still far more dangerous than it looked on the surface. So how did Vader end up so close to Leia that early in the Imperial …

Sam Witwer came into The Clone Wars already carrying one big Star Wars voice behind him: Starkiller from The Force Unleashed. So when he was asked to play the Son of Mortis, the living embodiment of the dark side, he started worrying that the voice sounded too familiar. That is when Dave Filoni gave him …

Anakin Skywalker was one of the most powerful Force users the Jedi had ever seen. From a young age, his abilities stood out, his reflexes, his instincts, his connection to the Force all felt stronger than anyone around him.

Order 66 was meant to wipe out the Jedi Order in a single stroke, and over time, Star Wars has shown that a number of Jedi somehow survived it. Most of the survivors we remember were either highly skilled, exceptionally powerful, or simply lucky enough to escape the clones’ betrayal. But Dass Jennir is a …

On Coruscant, a lot of fans notice the giant dome in the background and assume it must be some separate mystery building behind the Senate. But the real confusion may be much simpler than that. The shot is probably mixing up the Senate Building with the nearby Senate Office / Executive Building, which makes the …

One thing I’ve always wondered about in The Force Awakens is how Kylo Ren actually got Darth Vader’s helmet. When we first see it, he already has it and already treats it like something deeply personal, almost sacred. But that only makes the mystery more interesting.  The helmet had to survive, someone had to recover …

Just by looking at the image, it is easy to see why the Venator-class Star Destroyer stands out as one of the most iconic ships from the Clone Wars era. We have seen it in battle many times across The Clone Wars, but there is one detail that can still be confusing. On top of …

Star Wars has never been a galaxy where everyone ages the same way. Some characters live a few decades, some go for centuries, and a few stretch so far across the timeline that they make human lifespans look tiny. The tricky part is that canon does not give exact ages for everyone, so the cleanest …
