After hitting the big screen earlier this month, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" gathered billions for their box office. Over the weekend, the film was able to come up with $149 Million, $540 Million in the US, and $1.09 Billion world-wide as per Forbes.
Star Wars did make it big and introducing Rey and Finn got fans questioning on what their back story is about. As of Inquisitr on the other hand, there are several Star Wars characters that almost made an appearance on the film's 7th episode.
As of the Collider website, Darth Vader almost made an appearance in the movie. The website was able to acquire a photo from Twitter on how Darth Vader is supposed to look like. Lain McCaig, who is an artist told Screen Crush that:
"When you light a candle, you also cast a shadow." That inspired me to propose, for the first time, that Anakin's ghost could come back ... If we see Anakin Skywalker, because he does flow back and forth between Darth Vader and Anakin, let's see him as a character with a dark and light side. The reason Luke is this whole new entity is because he was the first to acknowledge his own dark side - that it was not separate from him."
As for Episode 8 on the other hand, Making Star Wars reported that Anakin's force ghost will be making a comeback as Hayden Christensen was already seen being trained. It was mentioned by the website that he will be making an appearance and would talk to Kylo Ren as Darth Vader. He would also be talking to Rey, but this time he would be making an appearance as Anakin Skywalker.
