Darth Maul Reportedly Returning To Star Wars Very Soon
Having made a surprise cameo in
Solo: A Star Wars Story as an integral member of the Crimson Dawn syndicate, it looked obvious that plans were in place for
Darth Maul to make a significant return to the franchise. Unfortunately, Han’s origin story bombed at the box office, but we’ve still seen plenty of abandoned projects set in a galaxy far, far away resurrected in some form.
George Lucas never got to make his Sequel Trilogy but we got one anyway after Disney purchased Lucasfilm, while
The Book of Boba Fett hits Disney Plus in December, years after James Mangold was attached to direct the bounty hunter’s solo movie. Maul’s old nemesis Obi-Wan Kenobi was also destined for the big screen before the concept was refitted as a limited series, and the Dathomir native has inevitably found himself linked with the show on a regular basis.
