The Five STAR WARS Stories That Deserve Film Treatment

THE FORCE UNLEASHED

Fans have long since clamored for an actual live-action rendition of The Force Unleashed. It was one of LucasArts’ best games, and has received positive critical reception from gaming websites and gamers alike.

Supposedly serving as a bridge between the events of Revenge of The Sith and A New Hope, it centers on a Force Sensitive named Galen Marek, who was adopted and trained by Darth Vader as his secret apprentice. He was sent by the latter in a mission to join the budding Rebel Alliance to destroy it from within. Boarding the Rogue Shadow on missions, Galen finds himself developing bonds with Juno Eclipse and the rest of the crew, prompting him to leave the Empire’s claws and become a full-fledged member of the Rebellion. He eventually sacrifices himself to save the founding members of the Alliance, inspiring them to use Galen’s family crest as the symbol of the Rebellion, and ultimately, the New Republic after the Empire’s destruction in Return of The Jedi.

Though non-canonical, writers may create a new storyline inspired by The Force Unleashed. They may opt to create a time-spanning trilogy with elements from the game.
