With the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker novelization revealing that Emperor Palpatine was brought back as a clone, we process this information and explain how it all works. We include not only the details from the novel but interviews with actor Ian Ian McDiarmid and visual effects supervisor Roger Guyett. Some theorized that ol’ Sheev was a clone but now we have canonical proof that he is indeed a copy and not the original that somehow survived his defeat in Return of the Jedi.
