" A Chosen One shall come," it read, " born of no father, and through him will ultimate balance in the Force be restored." But there were other prophesies related to it, ones just as mysterious. Lucas avoided pinning down exactly what the Chosen One was, or even what he meant when he referred to the " balance of the Force." In fact, it was only in 2019 that Lucasfilm chose to reveal the text of the Chosen One prophecy. To the surprise of viewers, Lucas revealed that Anakin was a unique Messianic figure among the Jedi, a mysterious "Chosen One" destined to bring balance to the Force.Īll the best mystical ideas incorporate an element of mystery, and the Chosen One remained an enigma even after the prequel trilogy had wrapped up.
Until then, Star Wars had been " from the adventures of Luke Skywalker," but now it was centered on his father, Anakin Skywalker, the man destined to become Darth Vader. When George Lucas launched the prequel trilogy with Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace back in 1999, he shifted narrative gears dramatically. Lucasfilm's Star Wars: The High Republic transmedia initiative promises to reveal the dark truth about the Chosen One prophecy.
