Rare Star Wars Script Protects Empire’s Darth Vader Secret

New DVD release, , , , ,
This article contains spoilers for Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Far From Home. These days, you’d lose a metaphorical hand to a studio’s red lightsaber if you dished details on any major upcoming plot twists. Media training for interviews, fake scripts, and so much green screen that the actors couldn’t even really tell you what was happening on set if they tried are all extremely commonplace behind the scenes of the big franchises, so that invested audiences get to experience that collective shock when Cap wields Mjolnir, or J. Jonah Jameson live-streams the doxxing of…

Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader Had a Rematch Before A New Hope

After Obi-Wan Kenobi defeated his former apprentice Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar in Revenge of the Sith, we assumed this was the last time they saw each other until their fateful duel on the Death Star in A New Hope. We were wrong. In fact, Hayden Christensen is set to return as Darth Vader in the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series on Disney+, which is set 10 years after Revenge of the Sith, to confront Obi-Wan, completely shattering what we thought we knew about each character’s history leading up to A New Hope. “This will be the rematch of the century,” Lucasfilm…

How Darth Maul Would Have Completely Changed the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy

New DVD release, , , , ,
Darth Maul is one of the most recognizable, visually impressive characters to have emerged from the post-Original Trilogy Star Wars films, despite being dealt a dubious fate in his very first appearance in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. However, it seems that the franchise’s father, George Lucas, originally had plans for the double-bladed lightsaber Sith lord that were far grander than getting sliced in half and sent plummeting down a Naboo air shaft. While we already know various tidbits about Lucas’ original plans for the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, some major new info has dropped in The Star Wars Archives…

Star Wars: Best Darth Maul Moments from The Clone Wars and Beyond

New DVD release, , ,
This Star Wars article contains spoilers. Since his debut in The Phantom Menace, Darth Maul has demanded the attention of Star Wars fans everywhere. In 1999, Maul looked unlike any villain that had come before in the saga, and the movie’s high-energy lightsaber duel is still one of the most memorable parts of the Prequel Trilogy.
