Star Wars 9 LEAK: Major Palpatine Snoke connection revealed in Rise of Skywalker SPOILER?

WARNING – POTENTIAL SPOILERS FOR STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER AHEAD. Next week the final episode of the Skywalker saga will finally hit cinemas. And yet, following his death in The Last Jedi, Star Wars fans still know very little about Snoke, let alone how Emperor Palpatine is returning in The Rise of Skywalker.

There is still much mystery surrounding Snoke’s rise to power as Supreme Leader of the First Order in the three decades between Palpatine’s supposed death in Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens.

And yet the Emperor is back for The Rise of Skywalker, with fans suspecting he may have been connected to Snoke in some way this whole time.

And now a new leak from Making Star Wars claims that how Palpatine is back won’t actually be revealed in The Rise of Skywalker.

Nevertheless, allegedly we’re going to find out his big connection to Snoke.

Meanwhile, a popular fan theory argues that Darth Plagueis, who mentored Palpatine, created brother Sidious and Snoke.

Reddit user PaleozoicChicken writes: “Has anyone ever speculated that Plagueis created Palpatine? I mean I could see it.

“Plagueis knew how to create life, so he creates the perfect Dark Side apprentice.

“His apprentice then kills him in his sleep after learning his methods, and the apprentice creates even more life in Anakin.”
