Return of the Jedi Deleted Scene Almost Redeemed Obi-Wan's Lies To Luke
Obi-Wan’s lies to Luke Skywalker throughout the original Star Wars trilogy are revealed in Return of the Jedi - but deleted Yoda dialogue would have redeemed Kenobi. Darth Vader’s revelation that he is Anakin Skywalker in The Empire Strikes Back is perhaps the greatest plot twist in the Star Wars franchise, though it also reveals that Obi-Wan (Alec Guinness) and Yoda (Frank Oz) had been lying to Luke (Mark Hamill) about his father. Yoda’s lines in the scrapped Return of the Jedi footage soften the blow quite a bit, however, adding nuance to both of the Jedi's decades-long deception.
