I Can't Believe What Mace Windu's Original Lightsaber Color Was (& I'm So Glad George Lucas Changed It)

Mace Windu is one ofStar Warsmost interesting Jedi.

So why did George Lucas change the lore and give Mace Windu such an instantly iconic color?

Thats all down to Samuel L. Jackson.

I come back the next year, and I was like, Okay, he didnt kill me off.

So, I said to George, You think maybe I can get a purple lightsaber?

He goes, let me think about it.

And I was like, Yeah!

Here’s what they all mean.

And you know what?

Samuel L. Jackson was right: its impossible to missMace Winduon that all-importantStar Warsbattlefield.
