Before Fortnite, There Was DarthJarJar.com: The Original Creator of Darth Jar Jar Speaks Out

Brand News 24 | April 22, 2025

United States, 22nd Apr 2025 - With the upcoming addition of Darth Jar Jar in Fortnite’s Star Wars: Galactic Battle season, longtime fans of the infamous “Sith Lord Jar Jar” theory are excited—but one creator has been here since the very beginning.

Brennan McMahon, the founder of DarthJarJar.com, was on the front lines of the viral Reddit theory that suggested Jar Jar Binks was secretly a Force user. While the theory took off in 2015, McMahon didn’t stop at speculation—he built an entire universe around it.

"I was there when the theory first exploded on Reddit. I believed it, expanded it, and brought it to life,” says McMahon. “I launched DarthJarJar.com, created the original subreddit, and wrote the fanfic series The Darth Jar Jar Tales. Everything Fortnite is doing now? I wrote it nearly a decade ago.”

Long before official games or media hinted at a dark side to Jar Jar, McMahon gave him Force lightning, a secret agenda, and a chilling narrative arc that turned comedy into tragedy—and theory into myth.

Now, as Darth Jar Jar enters mainstream pop culture via Epic Games and Lucasfilm, DarthJarJar.com remains the definitive archive of the idea’s fan-driven origins.

“It’s surreal to watch it become canon-adjacent without a single nod,” McMahon adds. “But I know where it started. And the fans who were there from the beginning know too.”

For readers and gamers curious about the real origins of Darth Jar Jar, the full fanfic series is available free at DarthJarJar.com.
