Star Wars Rebels Theory Reveals Why Ezra Bridger Is Vital To The Skywalker Saga

Summary

• Ezra Bridger may have played a crucial role in the Skywalker saga despite not appearing in the original trilogy of films, possibly ensuring that events of the Galactic Civil War happened as intended by the Force.
• Ezra was born on the same day as Luke and Leia, and his training as a Jedi and involvement with the Rebels made him a target for Darth Vader and the Inquisitors, potentially acting as a distraction to protect the Skywalker twins.
• Without Ezra's actions in the Star Wars Rebels series, including his role in exiling Thrawn, events in A New Hope might not have transpired, highlighting Ezra's significance in the larger Star Wars universe.

A new Star Wars Rebels theory reveals Ezra Bridger played a critical role in the Skywalker saga, despite not being featured in the original trilogy of films. Having been trained to become a Jedi by Kanan Jarrus during the Dark Times, the two Jedi were constantly on the run from the Empire and its deadly Inquisitors (not to mention Darth Vader himself). However, it may have been part of the grand design orchestrated by the Force itself in the Star Wars canon.
The animated Star Wars Rebels series takes place in the years just before A New Hope. Featuring several individual cells of resistance that eventually form into the Rebel Alliance, Rebels is all about the heroes during the Dark Times who fought to keep hope alive prior to the Rebellion's first major victory with the Death Star's destruction thanks to Luke Skywalker. To that end, Ezra Bridger may have been instrumental in ensuring that events of the Galactic Civil War could happen exactly as they were meant to according to the will of the Force.

Ezra Bridger Was Born On Empire Day - The Same Day As Luke & Leia The Skywalker Twins and Ezra Are The Same Age Right off the bat, it's important to note that Ezra Bridger was born on the planet Lothal on the very first Empire Day. This new galactic holiday marked the formation of Palpatine's regime and was annually "celebrated" by its oppressed citizens. As such, this was the same day Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa were born in secret as seen in Revenge of the Sith, unbeknownst to their newly corrupted father Darth Vader and his master Emperor Palpatine.
Luke was taken to Tatooine to live with his aunt and uncle while Obi-Wan Kenobi watched over the boy until he turned 19 as seen in A New Hope. Likewise, Leia was adopted by Senator Bail Organa, becoming a princess and eventually joining the Imperial Senate while secretly serving as a key member of the Rebel Alliance. However, Ezra became an orphan after his parents openly criticized the Empire, leading to their imprisonment and murder. However, Ezra would later run into Kanan Jarrus when he was 14. Sensing his talent in the Force, Kanan made Ezra his Padawan and the newest member of the Rebel cell known as The Spectres.
