Star Wars Zero Company Seeks to Reclaim Lost Jedi Holocrons, But Experts Say It’s a Hoax
A viral rumor is circulating online claiming that a shadowy organization called ‘Star Wars Zero Company’ has acquired a lost Jedi artifact, sparking fears of a real-world Force awakening. The story, posted on social media and fringe fan sites, alleges that Zero Company—a secretive group allegedly funded by ex-disney executives—is hunting for ancient Holocrons to unlock forbidden knowledge. However, fact-checkers and Lucasfilm representatives have confirmed this is entirely fake: no such company exists, the images of the holocrons are AI-generated, and the lore is pulled from fan fiction. The viral buzz is attributed to a coordinated trolling campaign aimed at riling up Star Wars fan communities.
