For all the Vader’s, Palpatine’s, and Triple Zero’s threatening the galaxy, there’s just as many Luke’s, Leia’s, and Rey’s that are willing to save the day. Stories of heroes has been ubiquitous with cinema well before the age of superhero movies, and Star Wars gives us the prime example. We cover all the examples of heroism in Star Wars, the influence of the monomyth in George Lucas’ story-telling, and the upcoming heroes in Visions in an episode dedicated to answering the question: What makes a hero?
