I had to Google him. I didn't know he was in Bright; I've avoided that film because I tend to avoid anything with Will Smith in it these days.

. Could see Maul haunting him. A western ghost story maybe?

Maul wouldn't have a ghost.

Joel Edgerton is a name now so yeah, casting him again would be a good idea (especially for continuity).

Why not? I know that Yoda and Obi Wan has to train with Qui Gon (per new canon) to become force ghosts, but Anakin didn’t. No reason why Maul couldn’t. Plus, it’s a movie. They can make up whatever explanation they want to make it so.

Darksider ghosts aren't really a thing. Anakin only ghosted because of the intervention of ghost Yoda & ghost Obi-Wan. ( Also, the whole thing about training with Qui-Gon was also in the old canon. )

The Sith won’t become Force ghosts. That’s the irony of their obsession to cheat death. They never succeed to do so except for one, while on the other hand it is the Jedi who managed to do it, in a way. I believe George Lucas meant to explore this further and bring it to closure in the sequel trilogy, but we won’t see that now.

Never got the love for Darth Maul. Totally empty character with zero development or motivations. Manchildren just think he's badass because he has a stupid double lightsaber and looks like Satan I guess.

He's quite an excellent charcter. It's just not presented in the film. He's built up in both Clone Wars and Rebels, in addition to comics and books.

And as for the 'one' who cheated death - he died! He could save others from death ( like resurrecting Venamis in the old canon ), but not himself.

Yes, yes, yes!

For the one who said about having the movie set during the Clone Wars. What if it is set in 2 time lines? One when Obi Wan is living in Tatooine , and something from the past comes back to haunt him (not Darth Maul) and we get told that story which would be from the Clone Wars era at the same time. Just a thought

Rodney-2187 · 01-23-2018, 07:36 PM

Qui-Gon must have contacted Anakin(Vader) just as he did Yoda. That's how Anakin has a Force ghost in RotJ.

I just put it down to the fact that Anakin was the chosen one and therefore he was powerful enough to learn on his own.

Arawn · 01-23-2018, 07:46 PM

It was due to Obi-Wan & Yoda hooking it up for him.

Personally I think they should get Dave Filoni of Clone Wars and Rebels fame to direct this one. He's shown on both shows he's a master storyteller, he's written more Obi Wan dialogue and directed more scenes than any other writer in SW. He has a beautiful almost painter eye for detail and his work on both shows is visually stunning and narratively satisfying. Just look how well he handled the Maul/Kenobi final standoff. He's pretty much George's apprentice, after working with him for four years and really deserves a live action SW movie if you ask me. I love the idea of having the film set in two time periods, one of those being CW.

I've always had a problem with this notion, even though George Lucas says it in the audio commentary, making it legit. The idea that Obi-wan and Yoda are on the other side, cheering Anakin on to cross over: "C'mon, Ani, you can do it!"

I was far more comfortable with the idea that Anakin transfers to a new state of being by dint of his sacrifice. Not only does his act of selflessness save his son but it also saves the galaxy from the tyranny of the Emperor, which is a pretty big deal.

This issue of the Sith not being able to continue their existence following their physical death is very simple. The Sith have an attachment to self which prevents them from being able to, as they see it, "cheat death". Only by letting go and accepting death as "a natural part of life" can someone live on through the Force.

The idea of Sith ghosts may seem cool but it doesn't gel with the overall philosophy of the saga.

This is exactly what I've been saying. Disney needs to make some Clone Wars spin offs before the actors get way too old to do them.

Don't know if this is legit, but there are reports that....

Lucas himself has been scouting filming locations in Belfast for Kenobi film.
