Anakin Skywalker was 22 years old in Revenge of the Sith, a crucial moment when he falls to the dark side and becomes Darth Vader. Darth Vader was 44 years old when he confronted Luke on Bespin in The Empire Strikes Back, attempting to seduce his son to the dark side.
In conclusion, Darth Vader's life was a tumultuous journey from a young slave to a feared Sith Lord, ultimately ending with his redemption and self-sacrifice. He was 45 years old when he died, leaving behind a legacy that continues to captivate Star Wars fans worldwide.
From that point on, at only 22 years old, Anakin had lost everything and was confined to a life-saving suit where he would remain, walking in his anger as a fully realized Darth Vader.
In the 2015 canon star Wars comic series, it's revealed that Luke and Darth Vader met for the. first time before the Empire Strikes Back. While trying to liberate an Imperial weapons factory, Luke was alerted of vader's arrival. He rushed to face Vader, determined to confront him for killing his father.
Darth Vader didn't learn he had a daughter until Return of the Jedi, when he stood before Emperor Palpatine. The Emperor's power probed Luke's mind, attempting to goad him to fall to the dark side, and he discovered Leia's existence.
Anakin Skywalker's birth mystery is solved - his mother, Shmi Skywalker, reveals that there was no father and she can't explain what happened. Qui-Gon Jinn believed that the Force itself created Anakin in Shmi's womb, making him the Chosen One who would bring balance to the Force.
Shmi Skywalker's son, Anakin Skywalker, was conceived by the will of the Force and raised on Tatooine. As a Jedi Padawan, Anakin married Padmé Amidala in 22 BBY. Three years later, Amidala gave birth to twins, Luke and Leia, passing away soon after.
Summary. Darth Vader learns Luke Skywalker is his son shortly after A New Hope in canon and Legends comics. In canon, the reveal occurs in Marvel's Star Wars #6, where Vader vows to make Luke join him.
While the Jedi High Council believed that Anakin was only escorting the Queen back to her home, the two were actually getting married at Varykino, a lake retreat on Naboo. Given that the events of Attack of the Clones happened in 22 BBY, Padmé's age was 24, and Anakin's age was 19 at the time of their marriage.
Luke was martyred at age 84 in the Greek city of Thebes. His remains were taken to Constantinople about 338 CE and later moved to Padua, Italy, where they are kept in the Basilica of Santa Giustina.
The obvious explanation comes down to poor overall planning. While James Earl Jones voiced Darth Vader and David Prowse played the villain in costume, Lucasfilm brought in Sebastian Shaw for the unmasking scene. At this point, the English actor was already 78 years old.
Anakin and Padmé had to grow up quickly due to their respective roles as a Jedi and a politician. Anakin and Padmé's forbidden love ultimately led to their destruction while they were very young.
Following Palpatine's final defeat and her own resurrection, Rey adopts the name Rey Skywalker to honor her mentors and their family legacy and renounce her lineage. As the last remaining Jedi, she makes it her mission to rebuild the Jedi Order.
Finally, Rey is Kylo Ren's aunt through Anakin Skywalker. This means that Kylo and Rey's romance is just as genetically awkward as Luke and Leia's kiss on Hoth was. Granted, neither pair knew they were related at the time, but that's no excuse.
R2-D2 was present when Padmé gave birth to Leia and Luke, so he knew Luke was Anakin's son – but what he didn't know was that Anakin became Darth Vader. In addition to that, Anakin's fall was surely a painful event in R2-D2's life, one that he definitely wouldn't like to remember or even talk about.
Parents debate. Some fans have speculated Rey to be either the daughter of Luke Skywalker and another woman or daughter of Han Solo and Leia Organa, therefore the sister of Kylo Ren. She would also be the granddaughter of Anakin SKywalker and Padme Amidala.
Han Solo marries Princess Leia and they have three children: twins named Jacen and Jaina, and a younger son named Anakin. Luke reestablishes the Jedi Order, marries a non-movie (but fan favorite) redheaded Force-wielder named Mara Jade, and they have a son, Ben Skywalker (named in honor of Obi-Wan “Ben” Kenobi).
It is well worth remembering that, as far as Vader knew at the end of "Revenge of the Sith," he had killed Padme and his child did not survive. It is also very important to point out that he had no idea Padme was pregnant with twins. This will come into play as it relates to the Leia situation.
Luke became famous after destroying the Death Star, putting him right in the crosshairs of the Empire. As The Empire Strikes Back picks up, Vader is obsessively searching for Luke, due to their familial connection.
Yoda. Yoda's knowledge of Luke Skywalker's true parentage was also confirmed in Return of the Jedi. As with Obi-Wan, Yoda believed that Anakin's fall to the dark side made him unsalvageable, with the Darth Vader persona being his only identity following his ascension to Sith Lordship.
