The release ofStar war : The raise of Skywalkeris creeping closer with just over five month to go until the final chapter of the sequel trilogy hits screens . Disney ’s movies have garner criticism but fans are excited for the final picnic of the franchise , in no minuscule part to the proceeds of the villainous Emperor Palpatine .
JJ Abrams and the respite of theStar Warscast left audience sandbag when it was announced that Palpatine , the mastermind of the original trilogy and scoundrel of the prequel movies , would be make a return . How ? We ’re not sure yet . But here ’s what we desire the baddest of bad cat to do when the blockbuster come out at the death of the year .
Don’t Want: To Still Be Alive
While we know that Palpatine will be in the pic , we ’re none the wise to as to how Disney chiefs will pull off such a scheme . One thing we do n’t want to go on , though , is for it to emerge that the Emperor subsist Darth Vader ’s attempt on his life history and spent the last 30 years lying humble .
If Palpatine were to have survived everything , it would take away the magnitude of Vader ’s actions at the end ofReturn of the Jedi . It would also make sense from a narrative linear perspective because a character of his word and ambition would certainly not have allowed the Republic to rise again . It ’s best for the moving-picture show to be one of Resurrection of Christ , rather than about somebody who has been alive all this time .
Want: Clinging To Existence
So whilePalpatine being alivein physical form would be , in our eyes , a bad conclusion , what about spiritually ? The recent Darth Vader laughable serial shows how dreary side users are able to keep themselves active in an object of importance , with an ancient Sith Lord called Momin managing to cling to lifetime via his old mask .
It would make sense if Palpatine has been capable to debar dying by attaching his spirit to , say , the 2nd Death Star . The Rise of Skywalkertrailer appear to show Rey , Finn , Chewbacca , and Poe Dameron edge toward the wreckage . If they do , as expected , then they may find Palpatine ’s spirit there .
Want: Essence Transfer
you could wager that , if a personnel - sensitive user were to come across Palpatine , he would take a shot at trying to start into their bodies to control them . And hot rumors suggest he will do incisively that .
While Matt Smith has insisted he ’s not inThe Rise of Skywalker , speculation has backed him to be act a dark - side substance abuser who allows Palpatine to inhabit his consistency in gild to rise to power once again . There has even been talk that , when Smith ’s reference struggles to contain the fall Sith Lord ’s major power , he could make the jump into Kylo Ren . And the prospect of Palpatine taking over such a conflicted Ben Solo would make for gripping showing .
Want: To Interact With Kylo Ren
Whether he take over Kylo Ren ’s body or not , it would be interesting to see Palpatine interact with Ben Solo . Whether it ’s trying to demoralize his mind or even instruct him on how to reign the extragalactic nebula with an iron clenched fist , it ’s something that plainly needs to happen .
Kylo showed he ’s ready to be the independent man when he murdered Supreme Leader Snoke , but so uninitiated and hotheaded is the First Order kingpin that he may require guidance from somebody even more powerful than his former master copy . Palpatine could be that man , but if Ren feels threatened , then there ’s a sense that the twain simply has to have a showdown .
Don’t Want: To Have Been Controlling Snoke
Supreme Leader Snoke is a character that , so far , has bomb to live up to the hype . Fans flocked toThe Last Jedihoping to know more about the mysterious master of Kylo Ren but were pull up stakes disappointed when , after no backstory , he was cut in one-half by his apprentice .
Snoke ’s origins continue to do machination , and with Palpatine returning , some have meditate that he was merely a tool to the real spoiled guy all along . This , though , can not be allowed to happen . Snoke had enough about him to suggest he was powerful in his own right and he was clearly different to Palpatine , both when it follow to looks and the agency he lead himself . It ’s best to keep the two characters separate .
Want: To Try & Corrupt Rey
While Rey is the Italian sandwich of the saga , she still has a dark inside her that she sometimes struggle to contain . Had it not been for Starkiller Base falling apart , it seems likely that she would have wipe out Kylo Ren in moth-eaten blood . She was allure by the wickedness inThe Last Jediwhen it entice her in with false promise about her parents , and she also come out prepared to team up with Kylo after Snoke ’s murder .
Palpatine pride himself on his ability to turn the good guy wire into one of the spoiled ones . Count Dooku exit the Jedi Council to work under him , Anakin Skywalker turned his back on them too , and Luke Skywalker virtually turn inReturn of the Jedi . Rey has a exposure that suggests that , in Palpatine ’s eyes , she ’s definitely deserving a pound .
Don’t Want: To Try Resurrections Of His Own
Palpatine has always been one to solve alone , rather than as part of a squad . And that means that , if he pull off to rise to powerfulness again , he should continue that way rather than trying to resurrect any of his old apprentices to help him in his missionary work to prevail the beetleweed once more .
We can decidedly expect familiar faces to appear inThe Rise of Skywalker — and even more than one Sith Lord . Anakin Skywalker may appear as a Force ghost , and there are even rumors that Darth Maul may return in some kind of flashback . But Palpatine should n’t bother examine to enlist help to reach his evil goals .
Want: To Take Out One Of The Heroes
What better mode to confirm Palpatine as the evil someone to ever maltreat base in theStar Warsuniverse than have him obliterate one of the Hero we ’ve grown to love over the geezerhood ?
The return of the Emperor has to signify something and , if we ’re go to believe he ’s as powerful as he was before , then they should have him do something of note . Han Solo and Luke Skywalker have already prick the debris , mean it would emphatically be hard - hitting if Palpatine were to belt down somebody like Leia Organa or Chewbacca , two of the Hero of the original trilogy . Similarly , if he were to wipe out Rey or even a redeemed Kylo Ren , it would make his return all the more worthwhile .
Want: A Showdown With Luke Skywalker
If there ’s one theatrical role Emperor Palpatine would no doubt bask the probability to get revenge on , it has to be Luke Skywalker . Had it not been for his reluctance to give up on Darth Vader and twist to the dark side , then the Empire would never have fallen .
Luke is utter for the time being , with the legendary Jedi sacrifice himself in the last outing of the franchise in edict to earmark the Resistance to escape — and dent the ego of nephew Kylo Ren . But it would be Brobdingnagian if he were to find a mode to return to the land of the sustenance to thwart Palpatine for a second time . Their spirits could even do battle — but what happens to the nonstarter ? If they ’re already beat , what then ?
Don’t Want: Relaxed Palpatine
Palpatine was unbend during the original trilogy , wrongfully cogitate that he was too powerful and cunning to ever be overthrow . He drop most of his time sit down and , when forced , he would utilise lightning from his fingertip to visit unimaginable painful sensation on his subjects and prisoners . In the prequels , though , he was different , using closely every office in his repertory to assure the boost of the Empire become in front as be after .
It ’s this versionRise of Skywalkerneeds . After 30 years away , he postulate to be show as a role willing to do everything necessary to get revenge on those who wrong him the first time around . fan require lightsaber battles with the zip ofRevenge of the Sith , they want to see him spray lightning like there ’s no tomorrow and using whatever else he can to defeat our heroes . In inadequate , he needs to pretend like a villain , utterly determined to recoup what he once had .
