Did You Know?

In the Star Wars Prequels, the villains of each film symbolize what Anakin would become as Darth Vader; Darth Maul was a Sith consumed by hatred, Count Dooku was a fallen Jedi, and General Grievous was a cyborg. 🤯

Hey Reader! 👋

Okay, so I’ve got a confession: I can’t stop overthinking Star Wars. The other night, I was rewatching A New Hope (because, of course), and something hit me—Vader figured out Luke was his son pretty quickly, but Leia? She was standing right there! How did he not realize she was his daughter?

I mean, think about it—he interrogated her, stood inches from her, and even watched her sass Tarkin like a pro. And yet… no clue? It’s one of those questions that gets under your skin until you have to dig for answers.

Turns out, there’s a pretty fascinating explanation behind this. It has to do with Leia’s upbringing, Vader’s assumptions about his past, and the way the Force works in some very unexpected ways.

If you’ve ever wondered about this, I’ve got the full story right below.👇
