Palpatine | Behind The Scenes History

- Опубликовано: 1 апр 2018
- The Emperor, Darth Sidious... Sheev. He's a character of many names, but how did he come to be?
Let's take a look at the behind the scenes history of Star Wars' ultimate personification of evil... PALPATINE!
(This video was made prior to the release of The Rise of Skywalker)
"We certainly haven't seen the last of Sheev just yet."
Rise of skywalker: palpatine laugh
I know exactly which laugh you mean. Too bad they ruined everything about Palpatine's return in Rise of Skywalker by premiering it in FORTNITE... lmfao fail
One side note: Ian also voiced the Emperor in the final episodes of Rebels.
Andrew Waples I was also going to point that out 👍
Wherein he mispronounced Ashoka's name as "Ah-shook-a."
On Disney plus, Sam Witwer's vocal performance as Palpatine was redubbed by Ian McDiarmid.
@@speedracer2008 And it was played on TV on May 4th
Did he? He certainly sounded like Maul (i. e. Sam Whitwer)
"Oh😱.... I'm afraid that the Deflector Shield will be Quite operational when your friends arrive" 😂😂😂
@ShitBitch "Geeze .....you don't have to be a D!CK ABOUT IT"😂😂😂😂
Ian Macdiarmid is the best Palpatine.
*the best Senate
Ian Macdiarmid is the ONLY Palpatine.
No one can replace the Senate
@@toddkurzbard he is not The emperor in episode 5
@Sixten Gustafsson Youg fool ! You forgot about the special edition !
I actually knew Palpatine was Sidious in Episode 1 when I was a kid, because about a year or two earlier when Kenner was selling the Power of the Force Line of action figures, they had the emperor figurine with the name "Emperor Palpatine." So, when I heard Amidala say, "Senator Palpatine," I was one of the few in my theater who knew who he was.
Come to think of it now, toylines have been ruining plot twists for a while now. lol
SAME !!! Im french but i remember in the mid 90’s my family did a trip to the US and among other things we ended up in a comic book store in Santa Monica, and i saw a figurine of the Emperor from
Star Wars called Emperor Palpatine.
So it never occured to me when i saw the prequel movies years later that the identity of the Emperor was a twist plot, the same we knew Anakin would turn into Vader.
I dont think it really was a twist plot anyway since the actor playing Darth Sidious was never credited in the ending titles. The only one indicated was Palpatine.
@@Chrysobubulle Moi je me souviens l'avoir deviner avec la scène ou Yoda et Mace disaient que c'était un sith qui avait tué Qui Gon, Yoda avait dit qu'ils étaient toujours 2, un maître et un apprenti, après ils se demandaient lequel était mort, le maître ou l'apprentie, puis la caméra se diriger vers Palpatine pour qu'il soit au premier plan, mais je comprenais pas pourquoi il était à côté des Jedi, je croyais qu'il était devenu gentil 😁
Ahh, la jeunesse ^^
Same when i was playing with micromachine action figures. Especially the Imperial Gard helmet/throne room, the Emperor action figure was labelled as Emperor Palpatine when in the movie he isn't named at all.
So naturally when the Phantom Menace came out, their was no surprise.
Was it ever meant to be a twist? I could tell Palpatine was Darth Sidious as a small child, and I was a hella stupid kid
@@lewisfraser4153 They tried to play it off. And looking at the films from the perspective of a first time viewer, you can see it, though it was really really obvious.
21:24 "It remains to be seen exactly how Palpatine will be involved in fresh Star Wars stories going foreward, if at all"
J. J. Abrams: Weeeeelllllllll.....
i was literally going to say something like that. the ending of this video was surprisingly prophetic!!
I'm actually interested in how sidious being in episode 9 will play out
Rey vs Palpatine. Family vs family. Sound familiar.
@@Dewitt-b8n if that is even the case. Who knows
A huge twist awaits us. Lucas had some major input on this movie. Especially act 3. Lets pray its good. @@wwb16
Gooooooood
henceforth!
Give in to your anger
Master.....what do you will of me?
What is thy bidding my master?
Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Cant wait for 'Snoke | Behind The Scenes History' video... The video will be 30 seconds long with credits.
Was that a type-o? You said 30 seconds...did you mean 3?
😂😂😂
Just watch it again
Might be a 2 parter
To be fair there are some cool tidbits (like him intended to be female)
Palpatine's true identity as Sidius was beyond obvious because his Power of the Force action figure in 1997 was named "Emperor Palpatine". Ian played that part perfectly. Palpatine is probably the greatest fictional villian in all of history.
He was named in the movie novel published days before A New Hope premiered.
They pick the right actor to play the part, his voicing was perfect
Got to include Snoke now, he looks so real and evil n scary in the last jedi, even the holograms in The Force Awakens makes him look more menacing than the emperor.
That comment was an answer to your comnent about the emperor being so scary looking- King Ramesez
Hey King Ramesez,
Great review and I agree that Darth Sidious is as you say ...

Why was Palpatine so evil? COS DASHIT he had to go through.
lol
Ah yes the 66th like
He’s not evil
in my point of view the jedi are evil
The moment they revealed that name in the early scripts, I knew someone would make fun of it. Well done.

"It's a sith legend"
Ian McDiarmid reprised his role as Sidious in the final episodes of Rebels
@history general yes indeed.
@I am Supernaut Maybe he'll be playing him in the new Clone Wars season
Where he mispronounces Ashokas name as “a-SHO-ka”
@@jyetaylor6898 He is The Senate, he's excused
And rise of skywalker
I love Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine. Seriously one of the greatest villains of all time. Ian McDiarmid is a legend! :)
The mighty Sheev is finally to return! Just came back from the Episode 9 Teaser and it got me chills.
I bet. As it should give you chills.
Because Disney is lining up a shot to stick it in balls deep to anyone that falls for it.
Good luck and may the force be with you. I doubt even it can repair the scars that will be left.
@@truesoulghost2777 at most it will numb the pain.
I love Ian McDiarmid and I am sure he will be great as usual, but the simple fact of the matter is that it will be poorly written as nothing in the sequel trilogy even as much as hinted at this. It's just more nostalgia play to get fans to buy tickets to this mess. This sequel trilogy could have been amazing, but serious mistakes were made every step of the way, resulting in flashy trash that is best ignored.
This isn't Something the Jedi Would Tell You
I've known the emperor's name was palpatine since I read the books in the 80s. It was fun watching people wonder who sidious was in phantom menace.
It was kinda like game of thrones the first several seasons if you had friends who hadn't read the books.
It's fun to watch someone else discover or experience a twist you already know.
As long as you have the self control not to be smug or ruin it for them.
As said all so smuggly
No Palpatine = No Star Wars
We owe our boy so much, what a great dude
It’s actually very interesting that Palpatine started as a puppet and ended as a puppet master.
It was a stroke of genius for George to cast an older Ian Mcdiarmid all those decades later, to play a younger version of the same character he'd played all those years before, when he was decades younger. (Lol)
It's like George had a Palpatine-esque, methodical way of pulling the strings behind everything.
As if everything that had transpired had done so according to his design. 👍😊
Darth Sidious is my favorite character. He is Star Wars.
@Captain Rex No Harrison Ford hates Star Wars, ANAKIN/VADER is Star Wars.
J Luke skywalker is star wars
It would have been awesome if the climax of RotJ had taken place on Coruscant rather than a second Death Star. It seems a bit strange in retrospect that all the action of the OT took place so far away from the Galaxy's centre of political power. Taking the frontier farm boy protagonist from his podunk home planet to the imperial capital would have nicely complemented the overall plot arc.
Could have been neat but I buy it
Yes yes a thousand times yes. I love this idea and refuse to believe it wasn't impossible since Blade Runner was released the previous year. In the prequels we can see the glorious center of the Republic slowly decay. We then take two movies to explore other parts of the Galaxy, only to return to the Imperial Capital, now polluted and ruled with an iron fist by Palpatine. Then we can take the next two movies to explore the struggles of the fledgling New Republic, and finally return to the First Order-occupied planet. Only this time, the people of Coruscant are not going to give up their sovereignty and freedom without a fight.
@@jebthegodemperor7301 much of the city stuff in blade runner is set at night (which is easier to get away with for a futuristic urban setting), and much of the ROTJ coruscant finale concept art is in daylight. I think it would have been possible (look at metropolis from the 1920s), but taken a long time; Lucas’s divorce made him want to get ROTJ over quickly, and I’m glad we saw Coruscant more fully realised later on in TPM
@@Wisdomcucco agreed, but I would have preferred to see Coruscant at night in ROTJ, due to night or pollution, to highlight the contrast with the idyllic Episode 1 version
Wait, in Rebels, Palpatine was both voiced by Sam Witwer (in season 2), and Ian McDiarmid himself (season 4).
@I am Supernaut Wait, really? That sounds interesting--and like a special edition! Is there a source for this?
I am Supernaut I wouldn’t be surprised to see him in the mandalorian season 2 or 3 tbh. There’s a growing power and looking for baby Yoda has to be orchestrated by someone. Moff clearly works for someone !
My second favorite Star Wars character (behind Revan). Palpatine is the best fictional villain of all time to me. He's the literal pure definition of evil, and yet he's likeable.
“We haven’t seen the last of Sheeve just yet.”
Unfortunately.
A really good review as it looks at the Palpatine/Darth Sidious character from every dimension. VERY well researched.
Darth Plagueis was wise . . . perhaps . . . far too wise as he created both
Darth Sidious and Darth Vader.
I really love your videos, I get so excited whenever you upload lmao
Edit: Also I love how you included a Palpatine meme
TheSubPredicate same! 👍
I would laugh so hard if the Emperor ever pulled a Nixon with the whole " I am not a crook" lol
I doubt I am the only one who, when they first heard "Palpatine," thought "palpitation"
I'd completely forgotten that Palpatine was mentioned in "The Last Jedi" - the movie was so horrible I've let most of it lapse from my memory.
Love the music...to those who don't know, it's a remake of the track "The Emperor Arrives" from Return of The Jedi when Palpatine/Darth Sidious is greeted by Darth Vader on the newly constructed Death Star. The deep "aahhhs" gave the track a depth no instrument could.
Interesting. Here I thought that I already knew everything worth knowing about Palpatine - yet I had no idea that Ian McDiarmid was not Lucas's first choice to play the part, but Alan Webb. I also did not know that his first name has been revealed in official material. So, it is "Sheev Palpatine", then... It sounds a bit weird but also exotic, like most person names in Star Wars. Thank you for releasing this video.
On another note, I was surprised how easily David Prowse lifted McDiarmid up so high at section 12:14. I would have assumed that some kind of trick was used in that scene.
Dave Prowse is a strong man (and a bodybuilder)
imagine taking a walk on the street and just seeing Sheev
If Rey kills Darth Sidious, I'm going to flip my desk over.
Lmao she does
Did you flip your desk over yet?
Did you flip your desk?
vent riss Did you do it?
DEW IT
I remember my boyfriend buying a SW Halloween costume for his son, after Return of The Jedi, back in the 80s. I think it was a pilot's coverall. The label, however, said Revenge of The Jedi. Can't remember why they eventually changed the title, and the kid ended up exchanging the costume for something else. I've always wondered
if we should have kept it, and how much that first one would be worth today...
Can you do one about Grand Moff Tarkin
MR. DALEK2.0
I second this.
Third this!!!! 👍
FOURTH
Great idea
They should .... DEW IT
Excellent video, and good prediction at the end! :)
Palpatine is my favourite Star Wars character
Hahahaha Good. Gooooooodd.....
Why did he hire you lol cuz dengar lol
I want them to do a Star Wars story about him, cmon who wouldn't want to see Sidious work some serious Sith power
Even with the scene of palpating revealing he made anakin to me he kinda implied it anyway.
Amazing video man! So informative! Me, being a life long star wars fan, (who has shown others the films and created many more fans through my passion when talking about them) still retained information I'd never known before and really enjoyed this video! Two thumbs up and an automatic subscribe! I sincerely hope you continue these videos through all of the new films as well, as I will be checking out more things on your channel and subscribing! Once again, great work!
Time to update/edit with new material from Rise of Skywalker!
April 2019: He's back....
The original emperor was Sinestro?
"Yes ,unlimited pooooaaaaaawwwwrr!!!.I will return for my graand daauuugggtaa...." -Emp.Palpatine
Love your channel! ! Uploads are rare... but a treat when up! !
When he first emerged from that shuttle in "Return of the Jedi", accompanied by John Williams' brilliant score, I knew that I was in the presence of pure evil. Serious props to Ian McDiarmid for bringing to life the most evil individual in the Star Wars galaxy.
the fact you compared Palpatine to richard nixon lol
I really wish they would make a Darth Sidious film. He’s one of the most interesting of all the characters and his back story would be worthy enough for a film.
Disney will do it. For the money
@@fekalistagrzybowory7619 nah they would never make it, they would be too afraid of "making the right wing sympathetic"
One quick note. The Vietnam War was conceived and began under Linden Johnson’s presidency. Odd side note. Johnson had many similarities to Sidious.
Both parties are the same. In fact both the Republic and the Separatists were under control by the same person...
Execute order 62...
he who cause da shit
All this background stuff on Star Wars really shows the quality of LucasArts and the depth of its story making. Very much unlike Disney who have completely destroyed the theme and original concept of Star Wars.
It's because Lucas at the time cared for Star Wars, and Disney only cares about $$$$$$$$$$$
@@Flesson19 A New Hope was the only one made because Lucas had a vision. The rest were made simply because they were successful. Episode 6 literally has cute teddy bear monsters in it just so Lucasfilm could sell toys.
Darth Sidius if by far my favorite SW villain.
Although the Emperor is only in a few scenes in each movie he steals the show when he's there.
The amount of effort you put into your videos is amazing!
Glad it's recognisable, thanks so much
Ok an emperor doesn't have royal guard, he has imperial guard. I don't know why they keep being refered to as royal guard. Royal relates to kings, queens, princes,..
An Emperor can be a king, and vice versa. The most obvious example is the British monarch during the British Empire, but there are lots of examples all throughout history. There's no reason why an Emperor couldn't have a "royal guard"
@@SonofSethoitae Palpatine was an elected official, not a monarch. He didn't come from a royal family, never had the title of king so his guard wouldn't be royal guard.
@@Artey86 It may not be appropriate for Palpatine, although I would argue that the line between King and Emperor is often blurred, but that wasn't the point you made. You said that emperors don't have royal guards which I pointed out isn't always true.
Bro come on -- everyone knew that Sidious was Palpatine back in Episode I
"Do what must be done Lord Vader. Do not hesitate. Show no mercy"
I’ve missed this series.
The Senate | Behind The Scenes History
Actually Ian McDiarmid did voice the Emperor in season 4 of Rebels.
That was an extremely interesting video that revealed several things I did not know from behind the scenes. Your idea, though, about Padme's lifeforce being drained by Palpatine to revive Darth Vader is amazing and one that I have never thought about before. Wow, this reminds me of the good old days when heavily debating with fans about what would happen in the prequels. It was so fun to be a fan back then as the prequels were being released, with three years between each one to discuss theories.
Little extra bit of trivia; In earlier drafts of revenge of the sith, Anakin was supposed to be present from the very start of Palpatine's arrest, and would in fact use Anakin's lightsaber to fight the jedi. If you look really closely at the hilt during the fight you can even see that it's Anakin's hilt with a red blade
Why would he use Anakin's if he had his own though?
I don't know if this is still canon or not, but it was revealed that he actually kept his lightsabers hidden inside two statues in his office. (It's also possible that he had them hidden somewhere else that wasn't easy to access). Keep in mind that in this version Anakin would've been with him the whole time, so he couldn't really just casually walk up to a statue, break it and take a lightsaber from it without Anakin doing anything.
@@puppetproductions991 I think that you are right. I have heard of that before.
It`s interesting to note that whilst Revill is Kiwi and Sir Ian McDiarmid is Scottish, Palpatine`s accent is a mix of RP English(As Senator and Chancellor Palpatine) and Revill`s Kiwi accent as Emperor Palpatine/Darth Sidious(Particularly in the pronunciation of the word "Galaxy" which McDiarmid pronounces like "Gilaxy" which is almost certainly a callback to Revill`s Kiwi roots).
Palpatine is easily the best character in all of Star Wars. He's the Senate, after all.
dude, Witwer gets to be so many badasses. I knew he was Darth Maul in Clone Wars and Rebels, and obviously he's starkiller, but i didn't know he voiced Sidious in the game too. that's fucking awesome
wow, this video was amazing. You got my sub.
Many thanks mate
The rise of skywalker... Palpy's is back baby
Can you do Jango Fett
Jango unchained
lol
17:50 "I´m whatching Toll-o-vision" Lol
Palpatine is one of my favorite villains in movies/books/TV. Along with Baron Harkonen (Dune), Mr Hickey (The Terror), and Bowler Hat Guy (Meet the Robinsons).
he even fucking got his clothes darker every time he gained power and started to reveal his true identity ..
Geniuses ..
Emperor Palpatine, the Evil-looking Sith Master
OKAY I literally just watched Taxi Driver two days ago, and during the campaign scene (the one you show), I looked at the name Palantine and said “huh. Pretty similar to Palpatine. Wonder if they’re connected”
16:53 thats one of my favorite parts of the prequels. that smirk, palpatine is like i played you so good and made you my bitch and you dont even know it, your my puppet for the rest of your life
Of all the perfect casting choices for the Star Wars series, having Ian as the senate was especially golden.
Imagine anyone but Ian McDiarmid playing Palpatine
"Are you threatening me, Master Jedi?"
You talking to me?!
" I _am._ "
Who the fuck do you think you're talking to?
*_*AHHHHHH!_**
I never liked that Palpatine ended up looking the way he does because his force lighting was deflected back to him I prefer the idea that being so embellished in the dark side was "poisoning" him and fucking him up from the inside out.
I was a kid when the prequels came out, and I always suspected palpatine was The emperor, but what spoiled it for me was, before Revenge of the Sith came out, I bought a Star Wars toy, and on the back it said, collect these awesome toys! And what do you know one of the toys was labeled “emperor palapatine”
Phenomenal! Great recap and insight!
Wait, isn't Ian still alive?
IMO absolutely the greatest casting for any role, ever.
Yes. Currently he is 76.
Good piece, man. Still, did anyone over the age of 5 not know that Palpatine was Sidious from the first time they saw Episode 1? Seriously? LOL. . .
I thought everyone knew and it was just an unspoken thing.
There was a great many people who did not know and the debate lasted for 6 years, right up until Revenge of the Sith was released. Actually, those debates were a ton of fun, and some fans made great arguments over why they thought that Sidious was a different person from Palpatine. Some thought that George was purposely misleading us and that he had something more clever up his sleeve down the road.
Anyone who'd watched the original trilogy would already know the name Palpatine.
Age has its virtues (sometimes). I was 19 when Return of the Jedi came out in 1983, and soon after read the Lucas approved novelization. Which really got inside the characters heads, and good writing. At any rate, yes. Emperor Palpatine recalled being "Young Senator Palpatine," having been a powerful Sith Lord all along, and having turned Anakin/Darth Vader. So...I knew all along, and waited anxiously for the story to unfold!!!
@@TheStarBlack No it was never mentioned or spoken
The Emporer has always been and always will be my favorite Star Wars character
I was just wondering about this yesterday! You read my mind dude!
Thanks dude
And he's back!!!
This video deserves more views.
"COS DASHIT" - As in, he's the guy who "causes da shit"
Unlimited..... *POWER!!!!!!!!*
I know some will hate me for this but I was glad that Palpatine was brought back for Episode 9. Palpatine is the ultimate evil in the Star Wars Galaxy.
I believe Palpatine could’ve survived with more tact, cloning is okay but I feel like the ultimate evil should have access to a completely vile way to cheat death in some way
Like if Kenobi and Yoda could be so pure and disciplined that they return as Force Ghosts then I feel like Palp pervert the powers that be so badly he’s basically the first and last Revenant still lingering even after he was vaporized
@@saltedhorsemeat4843 I doubt he even knew about how to become one with the force.
You should really do Rey. Oh wait there is no backstory 🙃
She should have been grandaughter of Palpatine or a genetic experiment with his genes
Legend has it that she faught her way out of the womb. Then she beat up both of her parents and left.
A character not being connected to other people from the series is not a bad thing.
@@mrwheatthins2413 I agree with you. I don't understand what they are talking about when they are dating that they wanted her to have no back story because they wanted anyone to be able to have the force. Wasnt that already the case?
Hah!
I'm still surprised Luke Skywalker knew his Sith name as Darth Sidious
I hope you make an updated version of this with The Rise of Skywalker.
I enjoyed the prequels it showed how Anakin became Darth Vader and it showed the rise of Palpatine from senator to emperor and IMO the prequels was really good
Here is the original Emperor's dialogue:
Vader: What is thy bidding, my master?
Emperor: There is a great disturbance in the Force.
Vader: I have felt it.
Emperor: We have a new enemy: Luke Skywalker.
Vader: Yes, my master.
Emperor: He could destroy us.
Vader: He is just a boy. Obi-Wan can no longer help him.
Emperor: The Force is strong with him. The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi.
Vader: if he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally.
Emperor: Yes. Yes, he would be a great asset. Can it be done?
Vader: He will join us or die, Master.
Ian voiced Palpatine in Rebels season 4
COS DASHIT - 'Cause Da Shit'. Couldn't stop laughing the first time I read about this years ago...
6:28 Nixon does the jedi mind trick.
never knew it was the same actor. Thats funny how that worked out so well.
