Purple LightsaberEdit

Before filming of the Battle of Geonosis began, the actor asked director George Lucas what colors there were for lightsabers. Lucas told him blue and green for the good guys and red for bad guys. When Jackson inquired as to whether purple was a possibility, Lucas only answered: "You might get purple". Mace Windu became the first Jedi depicted in a Star Wars movie to have a lightsaber that was not red, blue, or green.

Prior to the release of Revenge of the Sith, Jackson stated in an interview that his death scene would not have him "going out like a punk".
