    Hey guys. New poster here. I was inspired to come up with this thread after the spoilerdump guy posted saying von sydow was playing a prequel era character in the guise of the grave robber. He said nothing about who it was in the prequels other than it being von sydows character, so male character. What if he was giving us half the info and its actually not sydow but someone else...someone playing Padme? Think about it for a sec...grave robber obsessed with vader (look at the way the grave robber touches vaders helmet lovingly)...facial features matching more of a woman than man...could vader or someone else have actually succeeded in bringing padme back to life with cybernetic implants..just throwing it out there..thoughts?

    @Vagabondarts came up with a great alternative too - Shmi Skywalker!

    I was struck by the fact that one of the pieces of concept art was CLEARLY female.

    Look at that mouth.

    I thought "Leia" when I saw it. But the question is whether or not this piece is something that was final - or just one of many that was left by the wayside?

    Its a very female mouth i thought. I was thinking the same too..if you google portman and look at the way she smiles or opens her mouth its quite similar....poor luke and leia if true..both their parents turned out to be cyborgs! :)

    The spoilerdumpguy also said that the prequel character loved democracy...that would be Padme too..damn if only he didnt say it was played by von sydow..are we sure he didnt just mean he does the voice for when padme is undercover like leia in her Bossh costume

    Anakin Skywalker's Force Ghost : Obi'Wan never told you what happened to your mother.
    Luke Skywalker : He told me enough, he told me you killed her
    Anakin points at cyborg : No. SHE is your mother

    ...this art does indeed look like it may be a female, at least it does not look like an old MvS mouth, but at last it's concept...

    ...if it is padme/shmi then how did they get robotic? their corpses were kinda allright b4 they died, no? allthough it would make it a nice connection and the pic to me looks like the cyborg could have had a strong emotional connection to darth/ani...

    "Its like poetry..it rhymes" ha would be a great way to come full circle in the new trilogy

    Maybe "padme" got the implants to keep herself alive past the age she would have naturally died at..or maybe injuries sustained along the way..maybe it was the only way to bring her back?

    Padme has had a hell of a run. Dies on Tanntive IV - buried on Alderaan - blown to Sheev by the Death Star - remnant body reanimated by Palpatine and trained in the ways of the Dark Side - has a brief fling with Darth Maul - it's all very sad really.

    The height might be a bit of a problem there though it could be fixed by the old implants made me taller..since natalie portman wasnt on set that we know of..im thinking Daisy ridley might play a dual role in movie, doubling as padme? She does look like her from an angle..

    Maybe a transsexual?
    A crazy dude that ripped all his flesh off and wants to replace it with synthetic "female" fake flesh.
    But in order to complete his transformation he got seduced by the dark side, because only the dark side could give him what he wants.

    If Shmi really was a Sith Witch then what was she doing dwelling with the Lars family?

    This all hinges on if that spoilerdump is true that the grave robber is a PT non force user.

    Very true..spoilerdump could be misleading us but i hope some of what is true..either way i suppose the identity of the grave robber is still unknown...there is a part of me that wants Padme and there is a part of me that wants Shmi...each could be equally compelling as characters reintroduced...if Shmi was a sith witch..it may have been part of her plan to hide out there away from Anakin and thus not be any influence on him per orders from Palpatine? As soon as the whole "mother is in trouble" thing started bothering Anakin, maybe Palpatine felt it was time to cash in those favours from the sand people

    Naberrie nieces (her sister's kids).

    In the EU one of them grows up to become Naboo's senator and is close friends with Leia.
