If you’re a human being born in the last thirty years, it’s safe to say you’ve heard one of the most iconic lines in pop culture. “Luke, I am your father.” Darth Vader says this to Luke Skywalker in the 1980 Star Wars sequel The Empire Strikes Back – except that, well, he didn’t exactly.
The exact line Darth Vader uses to confess his paternity to Skywalker is “No, I am your father.” While the change is slight, it’s still telling that the vast majority remember him addressing Luke specifically – even James Earl Jones himself!
