Amidala is a princess from the star wars. What happened to Princess Amidala?

Princess Padme Amidala is a bright, energetic and strong-willed character of the famous saga called "Star Wars". She had a difficult fate: from childhood to Amidala, many trials collapsed and she had to devote herself to serving the people of the planet Naboo. With full dedication, she brilliantly coped with her mission, than she earned the trust of her loyal entourage.

Who played Princess Amidala in Star Wars?

The character of Padme Amidaly is found in several episodes of starry cinema:

• "Episode 1. The Hidden Menace";
• "Episode 2. Attack of the Clones";
• Episode 3. Revenge of the Sith.

The role of Queen Amidala in all three episodes went to the famous actress Natalie Portman. The director himself invited her to play the ruler and Natalie immediately agreed, despite the fact that she was not familiar with any of the episodes. She had to show all the importance of the mission that Princess Amidala performed in the movie Star Wars. The actress, who played a warlike woman, coped with this task and immediately became a favorite of fans of film fantasy.

Natalie Portman organically managed to enter the role of such a character as the Princess Amidala. The actress stated that this work was for her an excellent base of acting experience.

Childhood

Padme Neberry was born in a small village village in an ordinary family. She and her elder sister Solu were brought up, instilling high moral qualities, preparing for great achievements. She studied at the best schools in Naboo and from an early age showed talent in the work for the benefit of society.

According to the laws of Nabu, all the inhabitants of the planet from 12 to 20 years old had to pay their debt, working on a voluntary basis. At the age of 7 Padmé voluntarily joined the organization called "Movement for the Improvement of the Life of Refugees", where her father was Ruvi Neberri. As part of the Movement's activities, she participates in an operation to resettle people from the planet Shadda-Bi-Boran, which may suffer from the explosion of the nearest star in her system.

A little later, she joins the Legislature as a student, where she eventually becomes a young legislator. At that time Padme turned 11 years old. During this period, she first meets her wise mentor mentor - Silyu Sesson.

Ascent to the throne

Padme took queen of Naboo when she was 14 years old. By this time she already had the experience of ruling the capital city of Tid. According to the tradition of Naboo, all queens entered into their rights at a young age. After ascension to the throne, Padme assumed a formal name - Amidala. The princess immediately began to fulfill her duty.

Becoming a queen, Amidala completed a course of self-defense and the handling of weapons at the insistence of Captain Panaki, the head of the security service. Panaka himself was engaged in the selection and training of the Queen's maid of honor. The girls passed strict selection. An important criterion was the external resemblance to the queen, allowing at a dangerous time to replace it, playing the role of a double. The maid of honor perfectly mastered martial arts and could protect the queen.

According to the laws of the royal court, the ruler must wear complex outfits, hairstyles and heavy make-up, which Amidala did not escape. The Princess could easily put in her place one of the ladies-in-waiting of her entourage. Amidala herself at that time performed the functions of one of the maids and returned to her own name - Padme, which was known to the few.

Political intrigues

Five months after the beginning of her reign, Amidala encountered difficulties, which we learn about from the movie "Episode 1. The Hidden Menace". The Galactic Senate decided to establish a tax on ships that have trade relations with distant stars. This was unprofitable for the Trade Federation, since it threatened a significant loss of profits. Then the ships of this powerful organization, in protest, blocked the planet Naboo, living mainly due to imports (due to the scarcity of its own resources).

Supreme Chancellor Velorum secretly sent his ambassadors to the vice-king of the Trade Federation, Nutu Ganray, in order to settle the conflict. Vice-king under the leadership of Darth Sidious decides to destroy the ambassadors, however, they turn out to be Jedi and rebuff. Nut Gunray decides to invade Naboo and capture the queen, forcing her to sign a trade agreement with his Federation, which would make the invasion legal. At this time, the queen is replaced by a double-servant Sabe, which was approved by Amidala. The princess becomes a maid of honor, using the name Padme.

Jedi Ambassadors - Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi release Queen Amidala along with her retinue, and on the spaceship break through the blockade, heading for Coruscant. There, Queen Amidala planned to address the Senate through a representative of Naboo-Palpatine. The ship did not reach the goal. Having suffered damage during the breakthrough of the blockade, and without the technical ability to continue the flight, the crew decides to make a landing. For this, a small poor planet Tatooine was chosen, free from the Trade Federation.

Introduction to Anakin Skywalker

Arriving at Tatooine, the inhabitants of Naboo encountered an obstacle. Their ship needed repairs to resume the course. The right detail was expensive, and the merchants refused to accept payment in the form of Naboo loans. It is here that Padmé Amidala, in the image of the queen's maid, meets young Anakin Skywalker: a slave boy working in the trader's shop.

Fortunately, their stay on Tatooine coincided with the annual intergalactic race on high-speed cars, where the winner was given a large reward. And the young Skywalker offered his gratuitous help to foreigners becoming a pilot of a high-speed car of his own assembly. Anakin won the race, despite the dangers that awaited him. The course to Coruscans was renewed, where Amidala so strived. The princess was able to continue her mission. Now her crew was replenished by a young Skywalker - a gifted boy with a high sensitivity to the Force.

Liberation of Naboo

Arriving on Coruscant and speaking to the Senate, Queen Amidala realizes that she was dragged into political intrigues of Palpatine. Taking advantage of the situation, Palpatine takes the post of Supreme Chancellor instead of Velorum. The Queen decides to return to Naboo.

Being on his native planet, Amidala enters into negotiations with the Gungans - a deep-sea race that lives in the underwater cities of Naboo. It is here that her companions learn about the use of the double. It became clear who was the queen, and who was playing. Princess Amidala is carefully listened to. Negotiations are proceeding successfully, the Gungans agree to take the side of the army of Naboo against the troops of the Trade Federation.

The federation for its part provides an army of droids and attacks on Naboo. Gungans bravely provide confrontation, destroying droids. But the decisive step in the battle is committed by a small Skywalker, blowing up a control station droids. In this battle Qui-Gon Jinn perishes, and Obi-Wan avenges his teacher.

Nut Gunray is defeated, deprived of his powers and arrested. Queen Amidala wins another victory, being able to protect the people of her planet, while displaying extraordinary courage and exceptional tactical skills.

Senatorial post

The term of Queen Amidala was coming to an end. According to the Constitution of Naboo, she gave up her post to the next ruler, Jamilia. However, she asked her to take the post of Senator Naboo, who belonged earlier to Palpatine. About these events narrates the film "Episode 2. Attack of the Clones"

At this time there was a threat of a split in the Republic. Several galactic systems were going to leave it, which threatened the world order, so long established by the Jedi. Now Senator Amidala had to visit Coruscant again to cast his vote against the creation of an army to fight the separatists. Here, after 10 years, she will meet her long-time friends - Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and the mature Anakin Skywalker.

In the turbulent time, attempts on the senator became more frequent. In one of them her double, the maid of honor Corday, perishes. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin take up the security of Amidala. Soon a number of events lead to the unleashing of the conflict. So began the next star wars.

Princess Amidala again showed courage and selflessness in the battles for peace and justice.

Personal life

Occupying high posts and working for the benefit of the planet Naboo, Padmé did not find time to start a family. Although throughout her fast career, she has repeatedly tried to build relationships. First with a boy named Palo. But they parted ways when Padmé was carried away by politics. Then with Jan Lago - the son of adviser to King Veruna. Relations ended on the initiative of Padme herself. At that time, she was busy preparing for the elections.

The most tender relationship was with Amidala with a young Jedi disciple Anakin Skywalker. Their sudden meeting, after a 10-year breakup, revived the once-arisen childhood feelings. They found out about their love, being in the Lake District, where the Jedi pupil fulfilled his mission of protecting Senator Naboo. Over time, their feelings became stronger, but both understood that the public debt would not allow them to be together.

But, despite all the dangers and obstacles, Padme Amidala and Anakin Skywalker secretly married in the Lake District. Their union was registered by Maxiron Agolerga - representative of the Brotherhood of Knowledge. Witnesses to the union were only two droid.

What happened to Princess Amidala?

Unfortunately, the fate of the bright and strong-willed character turned out to be tragic. Padme was in for a strong shock after news that her secret spouse had chosen the dark side and moved on to the Sith. She did not believe these rumors for a long time until she went to Mustafar to see for herself personally. She managed to meet with her husband and talk to him. But at some point, Anakin Skywalker, an adherent of the dark side, loses control and strikes his wife, after which she quickly loses her strength.

In time, arrived in time Obi-Wan defeated his former student. Under the leadership of Kenobi Padme was taken to the medical center. The girl was never saved, her vital force left her, this process was irreversible. Before her death she gave birth to twins: Luke and Leia - hope for a bright future for the Republic.
