Qui-Gon Jinn’s lightsaber in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace is green.

Quick Scoop

  • Lightsaber color: Green
  • Wielder: Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, played by Liam Neeson
  • Film: Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace

A Tiny Bit of Context

In current Star Wars canon, Qui-Gon Jinn consistently wields a single-bladed green lightsaber throughout The Phantom Menace , including his duels on Tatooine and Naboo. Green blades are usually associated with Jedi who lean into wisdom, diplomacy, and a strong spiritual connection to the Force rather than pure combat focus.

Some later games, toys, or jokes online may show different colors (like blue or even red) for fun or technical reasons, but those are not canon to the movie itself.

In short: in The Phantom Menace , when you picture Qui-Gon igniting his saber against Darth Maul, that glowing blade is unmistakably green.

TL;DR: Qui-Gon Jinn’s lightsaber in The Phantom Menace is green.
