†Older sources put Luke and Leia at either 18 or 20 years old at the time of Episode IV, but we now know that they are born in Episode III, which takes places 19 years before.
The Force Awakens takes place 30 years after Return of the Jedi. By the time we finally catch up with Luke Skywalker at the end of The Force Awakens, he's well into middle age - specifically, he's 53 years old. In A New Hope, Luke is a naive farmboy of just 19, and by the end of Return of the Jedi, he's 23.
Luke Skywalker was born in 19 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin), so in the year of Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, which is 4 ABY (After the Battle of Yavin), he was 19 + 4 = 23 years old.
Han is supposed to be about 32 years old, while Luke and Leia are about 19 years old at the start of A New Hope. This has been the case from the early drafts that George Lucas wrote, and has never been changed either in canon or in Legends.
As Luke Skywalker is nineteen in A New Hope and twenty-two in The Empire Strikes Back, Luke was twenty-three, approximately half the age of his father, Anakin Skywalker, in Return of Jedi, when Luke rescued his father from the Dark Side and subsequently witnessed his father's return to the Jedi Order in the film's ...
'The Last Jedi' takes place in 34ABY (after battle of Yavin), making Luke 53. For future reference, here's how old Anakin, Rey, and Luke are during the events of each film. VII: Anakin would have been 75, Luke is 53, Rey is 19.
Obi-Wan Kenobi looks around ~35 yrs of age in Episode III. But of course he gets to be ~80 yrs old in Episode IV when only ~20 years have actually passed during that time. Many have come up with theories, such as: because of how stressed he was on Tatooine taking care of Luke, he aged very quickly.
Kylo/Ben was born about a year after Return of the Jedi so he's roughly 29 when we first see him in The Force Awakens, also possibly having turned 30 during The Last Jedi.
Originally Answered: How old was Sheev Palpatine before Darth Vader killed him? Darth Sidious was born ca. 65 years before the formation of the Empire. Meaning he was 65 in Episode III.
Solo: A Star Wars Story - This spinoff film takes place approximately 10 years after Revenge of the Sith - making Luke 9 years old in Solo: A Star Wars Story.
About 19 years then pass before the events of A New Hope, and the original trilogy spans only about 4 years, making his age in those films roughly 32 to 36.
There is a discrepancy between Canon and Legends sources. Claudia Gray's Canon novel Master and Apprentice suggests that Qui-Gon Jinn was born in 80 BBY, making him 48 years old at the time of The Phantom Menace. In Master and Apprentice, Jinn is stated to be 40 years old.
The next major milestone that Anakin and Padmé faced together occurred three years later, during the events of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, when Padmé learned she was pregnant with Anakin's children. At this point, Anakin was a 22-year-old Jedi Knight and Padmé was a 27-year-old senator.
Another moment in “The Rise of Skywalker” that generated a polarizing response is when Rey and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) share a passionate kiss before his death. Kylo has fully abandoned the dark side at this point and even used his own Force healing powers to resurrect Rey, who appeared to die after defeating Palpatine.
Kylo develops a close relationship with Rey and starts feeling genuine affection towards her, so when Snoke reveals that he had manipulated their bond and tortures her in front of Ren, he looks furious at his master. Thus, when Snoke orders Ren to kill Rey, he chooses to save her and kill his master instead.
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.
In Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, Vader was 41 when he encountered Kenobi for a final duel, and in that battle, Vader was finally the victor as Kenobi became one with the Force. However, this was also the start of his mission to discover what made Luke so special.
Short Answer: Because Rey ISN'T the daughter of Luke Skywalker. Rey is the offspring of a failed Palpatine clone (who's the “son” of the Emperor) and his wife. You'll have to watch the Rise of Skywalker.
The common belief is that the harsh weather on Tatooine combined with the emotional turmoil he experienced during and after the Great Jedi Purge simply took a toll on his body. While that would be enough to age anyone, there may be a more viable answer.
He would have been in his 30s for most of Rebels. He was in his 40s during the original trilogy, 41 standard in 3277 (Rogue One, ANH), and 45 when he died in 3281.
As the Death Star had been destroyed, and the Battle of Yavin had finally taken place, the years then moved into ABY (After the Battle of Yavin). It's said that Star Wars: Return of the Jedi takes place during 4 ABY, meaning Palpatine was 88 when he met his original end.
Tradition teaches that St. Luke died at the age of 84, in Boeotia, Greece, where he settled to write the Gospels. It was believed that St. Luke's tomb was located in Thebes, Greece, and eventually his relics were transferred to Constantinople in the year 357.
