Ian McDiarmid as Emperor Palpatine in The Rise of Skwalker

The true Sith’Ari

Undisputed Emperor and Sith’ari. 

I hated TRoS for what they did to Palpatine’s characterization, motivations, and literally turning him into everything he isn’t (a brainless idiot with no ability to adjust or plan and a wuss whose lightning gently tickles ships while Rey’s explodes them).

For me, Sheev’s driving Rey’s possessed body around now and enjoying trolling the galaxy again in Skywalker’s name as he buries the lightsabers in the sand of Anakin’s slave home as a final FU to the Skywalkers. Good work, Sheev. 

But I loved this expression and that outfit.
