However one other good man is seemingly breaking unhealthy in Episode IX, too, as one shot showcases C-3PO with purple eyes. Seeing as purple is a coloration related to the Sith, like Rey’s new double-edged lightsaber, we’re left to imagine that the fussy, comical droid is ready to be possessed by evil.
Within the absence of any official clues as to what’s happening right here, SW followers have shared their theories on social media – some extra critical than others. As an illustration, what if Threepio’s not possessed and it simply seems that he’s been on the Darkish Facet all this time?

Maybe the almost certainly concept, although, is that Emperor Palpatine is behind it. Darth Sidious seems set to play a big position in Rise, with each the primary poster and this second trailer that includes him prominently.
