What are your thoughts on Anakin being the son of Palpatine? I think he is.
Another quote from George in Paul Duncan’s Prequels book about his planned Sequels:
“The midi-chlorians started the birth process in Anakin’s mother. The Whills communicated the command to the midi-chlorians, which activated the DNA that germinated the egg. That’s why Anakin doesn’t have a father. He was in a bizarre and metaphorical way touched by God, but in this case they happened to be one-celled animals.”
And another very interesting detail, George said that Sifo-Dyas was Palpatine’s apprentice before Darth Maul and ordered the Clone Army while pretending to still be a Jedi the entire time. It explains so much honestly and adds another layer to his relationship with Count Dooku.
