He has single-handedly held up the dark side of the franchise, making billions of fans worldwide love him despite being a villain. He is one of the most popular and most loved antagonists that have gained popularity from all nooks and crannies of the world.

He was first a slave on the planet Tatooine named Anakin Skywalker. He was prophesied to be a Jedi who would bring balance to the Force. However, he is won over by the dark side of the Force when Palpatine lures him. When Obi-Wan Kenobi finds out, a lightsaber battle ensues, and he is left severely injured, after which he is transformed into a cyborg. He becomes a Sith Lord after Darth Sidious had bestowed the name "Darth Vader" upon him which means "Dark Father." After serving as a chief enforcer in the Galactic Empire, he ultimately redeems himself by protecting his son, Luke Skywalker, and saving his life. He ends up killing Palpatine and sacrifices his own life. Darth Vader is one of the most popularly known iconic villains in pop culture. He has been awarded a place amongst the greatest fictional villain characters ever. He has been listed as the third greatest movie supervillain by the American Film Institute.

It is highly unlikely for someone to not know about Darth Vader. In fact, Darth Vader has been so influential that even kids love him and play with action figures of Darth Vader (hopefully, no one wants Darth Vader as a dad but rather just Darth Vader things).
