Palpatine’s lightsaber duel with Mace Windu is one of the most exciting action scenes in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, though it almost saw the future Emperor armed with a different lightsaber. Upon discovering that Palpatine is the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, Mace Windu – accompanied by Agen Kolar, Saesee Tiin, and Kit Fisto – confronts Palpatine in his office, only for the Supreme Chancellor to draw a red-bladed Sith lightsaber and battle the Jedi. The film initially had Palpatine wielding a different lightsaber in this scene, however.
