Jar Jar Binks, the clumsy Gungan who Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, has been on a kind of redemption tour lately. Now, ahead of his performance in LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy, It’s worth asking what exactly happened to Jar Jar in the canon.
Our Sith Jar Jar fantasies come true in the LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy miniseries, which is set to be released on Disney+ next month. Here, our favorite exiled representative who became Naboo will once again be voiced by Ahmed Best, who unforgettable star Wars for The Mandalorian Season 3 to play Jedi Master Kelleran Beq. It was a fitting tribute to the actor, who faced decades of unjustified harassment for his – albeit very silly – role in George Lucas’ prequel trilogy.
I think I can say with certainty that star Wars Fans finally agree on Jar Jar, because he is totally Regulate. No, I will not accept any further arguments. But since we haven’t seen the character in live action since 2005 Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, his fate remains a mystery.
What happened to Jar Jar after Order 66?
POV: The Jedi Temple on Coruscant has been taken over by Darth Vader (Hayden Christensen), the clones are now evil, your best friend Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman) is dead, and Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) has declared himself Galactic Emperor. Suffice it to say, Order 66 was not kind to Jar Jar Binks.
The last time the Gungan appears in its full CG glory is in the closing moments of Revenge of the Sith, where he is seen mourning his friend Padmé at her funeral procession after she died giving birth to the twins. Other than that, nothing. He is not mentioned in the original trilogy or in any of the live-action versions. star Wars projects after that, and there is probably a good reason for that.
Given the enormous backlash Jar Jar faced following the release of The Phantom Menace, Plans for a larger role in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones And Revenge of the Sith were probably deleted by George Lucas, the comic roles were taken over by C-3PO (Anthony Daniels) and R2-D2. He appears here and there in the animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series, but much of his fate after Order 66 is left to the canonical novel S by author Chuck Wendig.Tar Wars: Aftermath: The End of the Empire.
In the book, Jar Jar spends his days as a street performer on Naboo after being banished again by Otoh Gunga. this time for his role in the rise of the Empire. This guy is seriously can not Take a break! Fortunately, not everything was bad, because Jar Jar himself took on an apprentice named Mapo and taught him his methods – so Bink’s legacy lives on.
Jar Jar will return
As already mentioned, the upcoming LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy The series, which premieres on Disney+ on September 13, brings a popular fan theory to life: Darth Jar Jar. From what we’ve seen, it looks like we’re in for a silly, time-twisting trip through the star Wars Multiverse, as the show features a powerful Jedi relic that rewrites reality after it is accidentally activated by “common nerf herder” Sig Greebling (Gaten Matarazzo). And yes, in one of those dimensions, Jar Jar is a powerful Sith Lord: “Mesa will hurt you, sa!”
Will we ever see Jar Jar in a live-action movie? star Wars again? I doubt it, but the upcoming LEGO special could give the character some much-needed closure. With the franchise slowly but surely moving away from the Skywalker saga, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jar Jar stopped there – after all, I don’t think anyone is looking for a Tales of the Gungans Disney+ series here. But who knows? Never say never, I guess.
