The film is set three years after the onset of the Clone Wars. Chancellor Palpatine is still leading the Galactic Republic as a wartime leader. However, the Jedi Council senses growing darkness in Anakin Skywalker and fear that he may be turning to the dark side of the force. Meanwhile, Palpatine has been secretly manipulating Anakin, gradually turning him against the Jedi and grooming him as his new apprentice.
The film reaches its climax when Anakin discovers that Palpatine is actually the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. Anakin confides in Jedi Master Mace Windu, who leads a team of Jedi to apprehend Palpatine. In a lightsaber battle, Windu manages to subdue Palpatine and intends to execute him. However, Anakin intervenes, pleading with Windu to spare Palpatine's life. Windu refuses and attempts to kill Palpatine, but is killed instead.
Palpatine then reveals his true intentions to Anakin, declaring that he is the dark lord of the Sith and that the only way to save his wife, Padmé Amidala, from certain death is to turn to the dark side and become his new apprentice. Anakin agrees, pledging his loyalty to the dark side and taking the name Darth Vader.
As a result, Anakin/Vader is ordered to lead a raid on the Jedi Temple, killing almost all of the Jedi. Meanwhile, Palpatine orchestrates a massive clone army assault on the planet of Kashyyyk, and Anakin kills several Jedi on his way there. Obi-Wan Kenobi, one of the few surviving Jedi, confronts Anakin on the volcanic planet of Mustafar. Their immense lightsaber duel ultimately leads to Anakin/Vader being left for dead, while Obi-Wan escapes.
The film concludes with Sidious' proclamation that "the galaxy will be remade." Meanwhile, in a heartbreaking scene, Padmé Amidala dies after giving birth to twins, Luke and Leia. The newborns are separated to protect them from Vader, and the film ends with Yoda and Obi-Wan watching over the young Luke and Leia from afar.
