That’s right, folks. Darth Vader, the Dark Jedi master so renowned for his youngling murdering skills, will take his talents to South Beach… err, I mean television (that jokes too old, isn’t it?). According to a leaked brochure from a European licensing event, Disney plans to unleash a Darth Vader special on one of its flagship channels Spring/Summer of 2014.

Now, as a purebred Star Wars fanboy, I hope this is either a live action event or (at the very least) an animated special in the style of Clone Wars or Star Wars Rebels. However, common sense dictates that this Darth Vader show would more likely be a short documentary of sorts, probably similar to “When Star Wars Ruled The World”. We can still dream, though… can’t we?

Could you imagine if Disney revealed this as a live-action Darth Vader special? A short, 20 minute spectacle, revealing the awful life of the Sith Lord in the early years of the Empire. Hunting down the loose affiliate of upstart Rebels. Contemplating his plot to overthrow Emperor Palpatine. You know, all around badass things?
