Mace Windu’s story in the Jedi Order doesn’t read like most others. He dedicated himself to mastering lightsaber combat and built a reputation as one of the greatest duelists in Jedi history. Yoda was probably the only one who could consistently best him in a duel. But that strength came with a dangerous edge. Mace …
Most Star Wars fans remember the shocking moment in Revenge of the Sith when Mace Windu is struck down during his duel with Darth Sidious, with Anakin ultimately sealing Windu’s fate by cutting off his hand. But what if that scene had played out differently? In early drafts of the script, George Lucas toyed with …
We all love Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia — she’s one of the most iconic figures in Star Wars. But behind the scenes, her journey with the franchise wasn’t as glamorous as it looked on screen. According to her longtime friend James Blunt, the pressures Fisher faced around her body image — especially when she …
So by watching Star Wars Rebels we suddenly got introduced to Concord Dawn. I mean, Star Wars has shown us plenty of different and amazing planets over the years, but Concord really stuck with me. The first time I saw it, I couldn’t get the image out of my head — the planet looks like …
When most fans think of the Tusken Raiders, the first image that pops into mind is probably the sand-masked nomads attacking Luke in A New Hope or clashing with Anakin in Attack of the Clones.

There’s a quiet moment in Attack of the Clones—a glance, really—that feels loaded in hindsight. As Palpatine talks about war and fear, Yoda turns and gives him a look. Not aggressive, not obvious. But enough to make you wonder: did Yoda already suspect something? Or was it just the Force whispering that something wasn’t right? …
The enormous Sith fleet we saw in The Rise of Skywalker was impressive, and not just for its intimidating presence. The fact that it existed at all was a construction miracle. Just how did Palpatine manage to build this fleet at Exegol? His planning was robust, thorough, and supported by devoted followers. The Sith Fleet, …
I was scrolling Reddit the other night when a fan asked, “Does anybody know what those markings on Rebel pilot helmets mean?”—and it hit me: I’ve watched A New Hope a hundred times and never really paid attention. Now I can’t un-see them. If you’ve ever stared at Luke’s red “mohawk” stripe or those tiny …
The decade between The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones is one of the least explored eras in the Star Wars timeline. On screen, we jump from a young boy on Tatooine to a grown Jedi Padawan standing beside his master. But in that space of ten years, some of the galaxy’s most important …
