The Star Wars franchise began in 1977 with George Lucas’ first epic film A New Hope, followed by two more to form the original trilogy. Since then, nine films have been created in the Skywalker saga, along with several spinoffs. Darth Vader was the original villain and the face of the Empire. However, Darth Vader's complicated origin story allows viewers to sympathize with him as they learn about his life as Anakin Skywalker in the prequel trilogy. Darth Vader being the estranged father of Luke Skywalker, is regarded as one of the most well known and best examples of a plot twist in cinema.

Anakin Skywalker was a pupil of Obi Wan Kenobi undergoing training to become a Jedi Knight, but a twist in fate turned him to the dark side of the force, and he assumed a new identity as Darth Vader.
