Ben Skywalker: The Jedi Who Redeemed a Legacy in Star Wars When it comes to iconic characters in the Star Wars saga, few are as compelling and emotionally layered as Ben Skywalker. Emerging as a central figure in The Rise of Skywalker — the final chapter of the Skywalker Saga — Ben embodies a profound journey of redemption, legacy, and the enduring struggle between light and darkness. ### Who is Ben Skywalker? Ben Skywalker, original name Ben Organa (though later adopted widely as Skywalker), is the son of Ben Solo (formerly Anakin Skywalker’s apprentice) and Kuya Balox’s niece, blending bloodlines from both original Skywalkers. Born into darkness but driven by hope, Ben’s character is a powerful reimagining of the classic Star Wars archetype — a hero born amid turmoil, grappling with inherited fate, and ultimately choosing light in a saga shaped by tragedy and sacrifice.
