DARTH VADER
Name: Darth Vader
Darth Vader is a fictional character from the Star Wars universe. He was
portrayed by bodybuilder David Prowse and a series of stunt doubles, most
notably Bob Anderson, while his voice was supplied by actor James Earl Jones.
The character is one of the most iconic villains in film history and was ranked
third on American Film Institute's 100 Heroes and Villains list.
In the original trilogy, Vader is depicted as the brutal head enforcer of the
Galactic Empire's rule across the galaxy. Vader serves as the apprentice of
Emperor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid), using the dark side of the Force to
mercilessly pursue the Jedi and the Rebel Alliance to the ends of the galaxy.
The prequel trilogy recounts the heroic rise and tragic fall of Vader's former
self, Anakin Skywalker. Anakin was portrayed by Jake Lloyd and Hayden
Christensen in the prequel trilogy, while Sebastian Shaw played the role in
Return of the Jedi. (New releases of Jedi have Christensen as the jedi ghost
with Yoda and Obi-Wan.)
