Some of Star Wars’ best scenes involve a traitor revealing their true colors, but some character betrayals weigh heavier on the audience than others.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Some of the best moments in the Star Wars franchise come from traitors finally revealing their true colors. Some traitors are characters the audience knows have been wound up so tightly that their snap was inevitable, whereas others seemingly switch sides at the last minute without any forewarning. Either way, there are plenty of characters in Star Wars who fit Obi-Wan Kenobi’s “scum and villainy” description all too well.
Lando Calrissian Turning Over Han Solo In The Empire Strikes Back Close Lando Calrissian was initially presented as an old friend of Han Solo’s who promised the Rebel gang refuge on Cloud City. Nevertheless, his traitorous reveal is one of the oldest betrayal scenes in Star Wars. Despite it seeming like the Rebels had finally earned a moment of respite with Lando, he opens the door to reveal their most hated enemy. Of course, Lando pleads that he had no choice but to work with the Empire.
Dooku Killing Yaddle In Tales of the Jedi episode 4 Close Sabine gambled the galaxy’s fate to see her friend once more, but Dooku took his betrayal of the Jedi a step further and killed his friends. Tales of the Jedi showed Dooku’s slow fall from the Jedi Order as his ideas and ambition were shoved aside and repressed by the Council. But out of everyone, his friend Yaddle agreed and supported Dooku’s belief in the failure of the Order, so much so that she resigned from the Council in protest.
Kylo Ren Killing Supreme Leader Snoke In Star Wars: The Last Jedi Close Kylo Ren killing Supreme Leader Snoke in Star Wars: The Last Jedi was an unexpected shock for everyone. Up till that point, Kylo Ren seemed to follow in his grandfather's footsteps as a faithful servent of the dark side. Snoke was presented with a commanding presence and powerful abilities in the Force, to the point where he made Rey grovel like a joke before him.
