Ian Mcdiarmid talks about Palpatine Skywalker laugh, fans backlash and a Star Wars demolished TV series

When the emperor Palpatine is back Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalkerhe sparked a storm of fire among the fans and Ian McdiarmidThe man behind the last villain of the galaxy for over 40 years is well aware of it.

Recently, Mcdiarmid has opened the reaction to the resurrection of Palpatine, the strange logic behind it and even touched a demolished TV series that could have explored the character of the character.

Speaking with the variety, Mcdiarmid said that it was “very satisfactory” to discover that Palpatine had a granddaughter, Daisy Ridley’s Rey, although, like most of us, was not exactly sure of how it would make sense.

“There has never been any discussion on anything of this. It was up to me to get out in my head,” McDiarmid recalled. “There was talk The ghost threat On something called Midicloriani, who were in some way involved in the birth of Anakin.

“George did not want to deepen too much. But we believed that it was a little virgin birth, even if it should not be said because God knows that you have any kind of complications.”

And when it came to how Palpatine could have children, Mcdiarmid did not exactly cover the question of question:

“So people ask the slightly embarrassing question about:” This evil monster never does sex? “And we don’t even know the answer to this question: things in the pipes, probably you think about it, rather than the terrible vision you may have in your head of this monster that has ever a sexual relationship with anyone.”

Skywalker’s ascent He faced his right dose of repercussions, in particular around the way the return of Palpatine was managed. But Mcdiarmid seems rather copied by it.

“Well, there is always something, it’s not there? I don’t read that stuff and I’m not online,” he said. “So he will only reach me if someone mentions it. I thought it could be a little confused in bringing it back. But as I said, my Palpatine logic was completely reasonable.”

“This man who was horribly mutilated thought that perhaps one day he could happen to him, and we must have a plan B. I loved the idea that he should have returned and be even more powerful than he was before,” Mcdiarmid continued. “Even if this time, he had to be completely destroyed. So I think he’s dead.”

It is interesting to note, Skywalker’s ascent It was not the only time that Palpatine’s past has almost had a closer look. Mcdiarmid also touched long -lasting time and not produced Star Wars Television project that George Lucas He had developed before selling Lucasfilm to Disney.

When he was asked if something in the series, he said to focus more on Sith, he was ever shared with him, Mcdiarmid replied: “Only the story of Darth Plagueis the essay. It is quite obvious that my character killed Plagueis on his way to become Palpatine. But in addition to that, no.”

“With George, you haven’t really discussed anything. You present you and turn. These films take a long time to do and the pressure is intense for many reasons; of course, George was at the forefront in all this.

“So he had all this to think about day by day. He takes a good dose of casting problems; but, once he was launched, he likes that the actors conquer us,” added McDiarmid.

While the dark influence of Palpatine still presents itself from time to time Star Wars tradition, don’t expect to see it Andor Season 2. Tony Gilroy confirmed that the character will not appear.

And with Self -cable Now canceled, all the plans to dig more deeply in Sith legends such as Darth Plagueis seem to have been buried silently for now.
