Mace Windu isn't the only Jedi in Star Wars to wield a purple lightsaber. When Samuel L. Jackson joined the Star Wars prequel films, he made an unusual request to George Lucas. He wanted his Jedi, Mace Windu, to have a unique purple lightsaber. Lucas initially refused, insisting lightsabers came in only three colors - blue, green, and red - but eventually relented. The purple lightsaber became Mace Windu's trademark weapon, setting a precedent for many other colors of lightsaber blades.
