Anyone thatâs seen âStar Warsâ probably thinks of C-3PO as a goody-two-shoes. Heâs stayed loyal to the good guys throughout the franchise, but the latest trailer for the upcoming installment reveals another side to the droid.
âStar Wars: The Rise of Skywalkerâ marks the end of the most recent âStar Warsâ trilogy when it premieres on December 20th⊠and fans think there are a few revelations in store. The latest theory is that the loveable know-it-all C-3PO is unknowingly a double-agent working against the resistancewhoâs true allegiance lies with the Dark Side.
In the new trailer, C-3POâs eyes turn red, hinting at a darker side to the rambling droid. In fact, fans think that all that babbling is actually a distraction from the possibility that heâs been reprogrammed by the enemy. All this time, he could have been âsecretly recording, saving and eventually uploadingâ his journey with the Resistance to expose them to the Sith. After all, he was created by Anakin â AKA the Dark Sideâs former leader Darth Vader.
