It Was Always the Plan to Bring Back Palpatine for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
The world finally got a chance to see the trailer for Episode IX and we got a teaser trailer and a title. Everything was more or less going as we expected until the very end when we got a laugh that made everyone stand up and pay attention. It was Ian McDiarmid returning as Palpatine which threw everyone for a loop. We have to wonder if that was something they've been planning for a long time and according to an interview with Kathleen Kennedy with Yahoo and she revealed it's been planned for a long time.
"This has been in the blueprint for a long time, yeah. We had not landed on exactly how we might do that, but yes, it was always [to be in Episode IX]".
So it sounds like Lucasfilm has been planning to bring back this big bad for a while which is good. There have been rumors that there weren't any longterm plans for Star Wars so it sounds like there were at least some things in the cards.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, directed by J.J. Abrams, stars Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Lupita Nyong'o, Domhnall Gleeson, Kelly Marie Tran, Joonas Suotamo, Naomi Ackie, Richard E. Grant, Keri Russell, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, and Billy Dee Williams.
It will be flying into theaters on December 20th, 2019.
