As the Senate of the New Republic scrambled to figure out what to do to govern the galaxy, Snoke swooped in and took over. Snoke was waiting for the fallout from the Galactic Civil War to pounce on a state of political confusion. He seems to have come from a dark and dangerous corner of the galaxy that the Empire’s control didn’t really affect. If the sequel trilogy is only set a couple of decades after the original trilogy and Snoke isn’t in his twenties, where was he during the events of the original trilogy? Well, he was probably doing nothing. However, The Last Jedi portrayed him as being around eight feet tall, which means he can’t be Mace Windu – or any human being, for that matter.ĥ Where Was Snoke During The Original Trilogy? Plus, it would explain how his face got so pale and dinged-up. It would make sense that an embattled Windu would turn his back on the Jedi and begin the First Order. Jackson’s behest, that Windu survived getting his face blasted with Force lightning by Senator Palpatine and flying out the broken window. The theory was fueled by George Lucas confirming, at Samuel L. There was initially a massive fan theory that Snoke was really an older Mace Windu. The stone encrusted into the ring was made of obsidian, and Snoke found it near Darth Vader’s castle. There were statues of them in Palpatine’s office. The Four Sages of Dwartii were the early philosophers who came up with the dangerous ideas that led to people using the Dark Side of the Force for tyrannical evil, so they’re pretty controversial figures. The ring itself is made of gold and has glyphs from the Four Sages of Dwartii carved into it. So, it’s clearly an important part of the character. When he was supposedly killed, his hands were cut off at the wrist and the ring was left lying on the arm of his throne. That’s where The Force Awakens begins.Ī big deal was made out of Snoke’s ring in The Last Jedi.
As Kylo Ren, he dominated the galaxy with the First Order before the Resistance showed up to stop him. He used this to lure Luke Skywalker’s most promising apprentice Ben Solo away from the path of a Jedi and turn him evil, breaking up the Skywalker family – the only family left with ties to the Light Side of the Force – and guided Ben as he became Kylo Ren. However, he does have an extremely strong connection to the Dark Side of the Force. The Sith Order died out with Darth Vader and Darth Sidious, and Snoke isn’t a Sith Lord. Maybe he’ll make an appearance in the future, but this probably isn’t it.Ĩ How Did Snoke Become The Supreme Leader Of The First Order? Plagueis technically belongs to the Star Wars Legends (what Disney decided to call four decades of Expanded Universe material after they took over and rewrote the whole thing), but since he was mentioned by Palpatine in the prequel trilogy, he just about managed to slip his way into the Disney canon. RELATED: Theory: Snoke IS Darth Plagueis (And Star Wars 9’s Real Villain) While it was initially thought that Supreme Leader Snoke was really Darth Plagueis, the powerful Sith Lord mentioned by Palpatine in Revenge of the Sith, if it’s been confirmed that Snoke isn’t a Sith Lord, then he probably isn’t Darth Plagueis. Beneath that vulnerability, though, is this intense hatred…He’s definitely not a Sith, but he’s certainly at the darker end of the Force.” He’s incredibly damaged, so there’s a bizarre vulnerability about him. He’s riddled with this osteoporosis so his body’s twisted, like a corkscrew. In Andy Serkis’ own words, “Snoke is bloody dark way darker than Palpatine.
The passive moviegoer would be forgiven for thinking this villainous overlord is affiliated with the Sith, but the villains of Star Wars seem to be moving away from the Sith in the same way that the heroes are moving away from the Jedi.

RELATED: Star Wars: 15 Craziest Fan Theories About Snoke There could be more to Snoke than meets the eye. It hardly seems likely that he’d go out in such an unceremonious fashion, especially given the operatic theatrics of this saga. But is he really gone? As we’ve seen from Luke Skywalker’s epic final stand in The Last Jedi, it’s possible to project yourself onto other planets using the Force. Supreme Leader Snoke, the Emperor Palpatine of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, seems to have come and gone without making much of an impact.
