Warning! This article contains spoilers for Star Wars: The Bad Batch and The Mandalorian.Through Disney+ TV shows such as The Mandalorian and Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Star Wars is leaving various breadcrumbs that seem to be leading to the origins of Supreme Leader Snoke. Snoke was first introduced in Star Wars: The Force Awakens as the tyrannical, villainous leader of the First Order. While little was revealed about Snoke's history in that film, Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker offered major clues to Snoke's backstory.
Undoubtedly the biggest reveal about Snoke was that he was a puppet of the long-running Star Wars villain Emperor Palpatine. The Rise of Skywalker revealed Palpatine created multiple clones to serve his bidding, one of which being Andy Serkis' Snoke from Star Wars' sequel trilogy. Despite this background, the plot point was frustratingly underwritten, providing little detail about how exactly Palpatine's plan unfolded. Several years after the confusing twist, it seems that Star Wars' recent TV shows The Bad Batch and The Mandalorian are rising to the challenge of explaining Snoke and his links to Darth Sidious.
