"I am your father."
– Darth Vader, The Empire Strikes Back

Did You Know?

James Earl Jones recorded all of Darth Vader’s lines in just 2.5 hours and was paid $7,500 for it.

He opted for an upfront salary rather than shares of the movie’s profits. In his own words:

"$7,000 was big money for me in those days. I was broke and needed the money to pay rent and buy groceries!"

"No, I am your father." — Darth Vader "That's impossible!" — Luke Skywalker (The Empire Strikes Back) Did You Know? In The Last Jedi, Luke still bears the blaster shot he received to his robotic hand in Return of the Jedi. 😱 Hey Reader, it’s Vance here! 👋 When I rewatched Episode V not too long ago, I paused right at that moment, Leia placing something over Luke’s arm.
