Anakin Skywalker was prophesized to bring the balance to the Force, but one Star Wars theory suggests that Count Dooku believed he was the true Chosen One, not Anakin. The prophecy of the Chosen One is central to the Star Wars prequel trilogy, but it has always had an underlying level of uncertainty.
Though there was some debate that Anakin Skywalker's son, Luke Skywalker, was actually the Chosen One since he caused his father to destroy Darth Sidious, the debate was settled when George Lucas himself confirmed in an interview that Anakin, even after becoming Darth Vader, was still officially the Chosen One and not ...
George Lucas himself has stated that Anakin is the Chosen One and that the prophecy is true, although it had been misinterpreted by the entire Jedi Order. Lucas believes that both the dark side—greed— and the light side—compassion—are integral parts of human beings.
This depends on whether you hold to the canon of Lucas or the canon of Disney. In Lucas' canon Anakin is the chosen one . However, due to the heretical input of the takeover of Star Wars by Disney, Rey apparently has now been appointed that designation.
Conclusion. Anakin fulfilled all the requirements of the Chosen One, because his creator wrote him to fulfill the prophecy of the Chosen One. He wrote him to fulfill the Will of the Force, which said only that he would be born when the Force was out of balance to correct it.
“By the end of the trilogy Luke would've rebuilt much of the Jedi, and we would have the renewal of the New Republic, with Leia, Senator Organa, becoming the Supreme Chancellor in charge of everything. So she ended up being the Chosen One," the book reads.
Following Palpatine's final defeat and her own resurrection, Rey adopts the name Rey Skywalker to honor her mentors and their family legacy and renounce her lineage. As the last remaining Jedi, she makes it her mission to rebuild the Jedi Order.
At the end of their fated duel on Tatooine, a dying Maul asks Obi-Wan Kenobi if the person he protects – Luke – is the Chosen One. And Obi-Wan answers, “Yes.”
The latest Star Wars reference book confirms Rey possesses a secret Force ability called psychometry. Rey is undoubtedly one of the most powerful Force-users in the galaxy. In part this is biological, because she is the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine himself.
Rey's father was the cloned son, artificial genetic strandcast, of the resurrected Darth Sidious, making her the granddaughter of the fallen Galactic Emperor and Dark Lord of the Sith.
Even in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, after Anakin gets denied Jedi training, Qui-Gon says, "He is the Chosen One, you must see it," right in front of the young boy. That means Anakin was well aware of his status and everything that came with it.
No longer was it the story of Luke Skywalker, but rather it was the tale of his father Anakin. In order to cement this idea, he revealed Anakin Skywalker was the Chosen One, a mysterious being with a unique destiny.
Always pushing the limits of his Jedi training, seeking to excel and live up to his reputation, Skywalker's passion often brought him into conflict with his mentor, Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi.
The Jedi however also have three outliers in that of Luke, Leia, and Cade Skywalker (23000/23000/21000 midi-chlorians respectively) all of which were children/descendants of Anakin Skywalker (the chosen one) and so genetically predisposed to having abnormally-high midi-chlorian counts for Jedi.
Qui-Gon got to know Anakin and his mother, Shmi. He discovered that Anakin had no father and had the highest midi-chlorian count ever recorded. This convinced Qui-Gon that Anakin was the Chosen One.
In Star Wars: The Last Jedi, we got an answer to the question of Rey's parents: they were nobodies. While Star Wars had been built on tropes parentage with the relationship between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader, writer-director Rian Johnson chose to go in a different direction.
The weapon had a kyber crystal at its heart, and emitted a yellow-colored plasma blade when ignited. The emitter matrix on Rey's weapon featured a rotating gear-like mechanism, which caused the emitter of the lightsaber to open up and allow the plasma blade through.
Well, a new Star Wars tie-in has finally answered that question. In The Rise of Skywalker's novelization, we learn that Rey's father was a failed clone of Emperor Palpatine. He was initially created to be a vessel to house Palpatine and his Sith power.
He came to recruit the Padawan for another ritual, one that would finally reveal the answers they seek. Begrudgingly, the boy and his friends went with Maul to Dathomir, where Nightsister magick gifted them the knowledge that Obi-Wan Kenobi was alive, and he was on Tatooine. Finally, Maul was close to his revenge.
Following his fall to the dark side, however, Obi-Wan Kenobi came to regard his son Luke Skywalker as the Chosen One, or so he told the former Sith Apprentice Maul shortly before he died.
Although Anakin Skywalker brought the Force back into balance, the Jedi Order was decimated by his actions as Darth Vader, leaving Luke Skywalker as the last of the Jedi.” The site also offers a direct quote from Luke Skywalker himself – “For many years, there was balance, and then I saw… Ben.
Rey's father was a genetic clone of the Emperor himself. Her mother was the woman he loved on Jakku before hiding Rey away from the Empires agents. This reveal, too, was a shock to fans who were largely not expecting any more information on the subject as it had been put to rest in the previous film.
What is the connection between Kylo Ren and Rey? As Kylo Ren himself says in The Rise of Skywalker, he and Rey are bonded not just by their familial legacies (Ren as the grandson of Darth Vader and Rey as the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine) but by their unique connection in the Force.
