The introduction of cloning technology in the 2002 film Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones fundamentally shaped the prequel trilogy and made spin-off shows like Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars: The Bad Batch possible. Cloning also played a key role—though a controversial one—in the 2019 film Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker, allowing Emperor Palpatine to unexpectedly return.
