The Empire rules the galaxy with fear and propaganda. The Jedi are legend—hunted and forgotten. But on the backwater mining world of Tatooine, a teenager named Luke Skywalker toils away under surveillance, unaware that he is the son of Darth Vader, the Empire’s most feared enforcer. His quiet life is shattered when he discovers a message hidden in a rebel droid meant for General Obi-Wan Kenobi. It comes from Princess Leia Organa, a political firebrand and the secret daughter of Padmé Amidala, who has stolen vital data on the Empire’s new planet-killing weapon: the Death Star. With help from rogue pilot Han Solo, freedom fighter Chewbacca, and the ghost of Obi-Wan, Luke joins the Rebellion. Trained briefly by Ahsoka Tano, who now operates in secret, Luke begins unlocking his Force sensitivity. The film ends with the destruction of the Death Star—using blueprints once smuggled by Galen Marek, the fallen apprentice of Darth Vader turned martyr. The Alliance has lit a spark.
