Read more about Padme Amidala at: Wikipedia Official Site: Lucasfilm LTD Padmé Naberrie, better known as Padmé Amidala Skywalker, is a fictional character in George Lucas' Science Fiction saga Star Wars. She first appeared on film in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999), as the young queen of the planet Naboo. In subsequent prequel trilogy films, Padmé represents Naboo in the Galactic Senate. She is featured in the animated miniseries Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003–2005), Star Wars: The Clone Wars and in Star Wars literature. Padmé is the secret wife of Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) and mother of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and Princess Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher). Born in a mountain village on Naboo 46 years before the events of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977), Padmé Naberrie became known successively by her Name of State as Princess Amidala of Theed, later becoming as Queen Amidala of Naboo and Senator Amidala of the Galactic Republic, who adheres to the principles of democracy and rule of law. Initial drafts of Star Wars written by Lucas in the 1970s do not explain the role which the mother of Luke and Leia plays in the saga. Vague references are made to her in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983), but the character was not fully realized until the prequel trilogy of films that were released between 1999 and 2005. Padmé Amidala was portrayed by actress Natalie Portman in the trilogy. An elaborate wardrobe was tailored for the character by costume designer Trisha Biggar. As a principal character in Star Wars, Padmé Amidala plays a prominent role in the prequel films. She also appears in the Expanded Universe where her role in the Star Wars galaxy outside the films is explained. Padmé is the protagonist of two Star Wars books.
