George Lucas Reveals Original Ending to Return of the Jedi 1

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi marks the iconic conclusion to the Original Trilogy and is, at its heart, a story of good conquering evil. At the conclusion of the 1983 film, the young Jedi Luke Skywalker resists the temptation of the Dark Side and helps to defeat the Galactic Empire. Luke bests his father, Darth Vader, in combat, and then spares his life, which leads the Sith Lord to perform an act of redemption by saving his son from Emperor Palpatine.  However, George Lucas originally envisioned a far more sinister end for the story — one that definitely would not have worked.
