Fan Art Depicts Benedict Cumberbatch As Grand Admiral Thrawn
One of the most popular non-film characters in all of Star Wars is the Chiss Imperial, Grand Admiral Thrawn. First introduced in Timothy Zahn's Heir to the Empire, Thrawn made a big impact with his military prowess and effective leadership. Once Lucasfilm made all of the Star Wars Expanded Universe material non-canon, fans hoped that Thrawn would come back into the spotlight once again in a canon property.

Possible 'The Bad Batch' Leak Reveals Main Story Plot Point
***Potenital Spoilers for Star Wars: The Bad Batch Ahead*** As it stands at the moment, it would appear that it is going to be several months before we see further live-action Star Wars projects on our screens. (The Book of Boba Fett comes out in December 2021.) Although we know there are more than a few planned, most have yet to actually set a production date.

‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’: Disney+ 'Star Wars Series' Adds Maya Erskine
The Obi-Wan Kenobi series for Disney+ is on track as far as production is concerned. Set ten years after the events of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, it will see the return of Ewan McGregor as the titular character, as well as Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader actor Hayden Christensen. Kathleen Kennedy has said that the two will have a rematch of sorts, though we do not know story details beyond that. Given that Kenobi is in exile at this point, it is natural that the actors Joel Edgerton and Bonnie Piesse, who portrayed young Owen and Beru in the prequel trilogy, would be returning. Lucasfilm recently announced a large cast list, but now there is some reporting of a name that did not appear on that list.

James Gunn Says 'Knights Of The Old Republic' Is The Greatest Video Game Of All Time
Director James Gunn is a big ol’ nerd. The popular filmmaker, best known for directing the Guardians of the Galaxy films for Marvel Studios and Disney, in addition to writing and directing the upcoming The Suicide Squad sequel for WarnerMedia and DC Films. Not only does Gunn love comic books and animation, but he loves video games, too. One of his favorite video games is the classic Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic for various gaming platforms, which he prefers over anything that’s Star Wars-related in the franchise, including films, books, TV shows, toys, etc.

Bo-Katan Thought The Luke Skywalker Cameo Was Really This Character
Season 2 of Disney+’s The Mandalorian gave us so many amazing surprises and epic cameos that changed the future of Star Wars for the better. Although seeing Ahsoka in live-action shocked fans to the next level, the one cameo that brought fans to their knees was that of Jedi Master Luke Skywalker in the season finale.

Wookiees May Be Appearing In 'The Mandalorian' Season 3
Despite season 2 ending only a short while ago, it is abundantly clear that The Mandalorian is an absolute hit and fans are more than happy to have it included as part of the ever growing Star Wars universe. It would seem that Disney has also taken note of this and heard the fans' joy, based on the numerous TV shows it now has in the pipeline to further expand said universe.

Darth Revan May Be Making His Return To 'Star Wars' Canon After All
The character Revan came into existence in 2003 with the critically acclaimed game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. We were introduced to this former Jedi who had previously led the Republic against the Mandalorians. After succumbing to the temptation of the dark side of the Force, he returns as Darth Revan leading the Sith forces against the Republic. The prelude of the game tells us that Revan was finally brought down as a result of Jedi Knight Bastila’s powerful battle meditation, and his apprentice Darth Malak’s betrayal. For the remainder of the game, the player controls an amnesiac presumably Republic soldier who eventually gains Force powers, and undergoes Jedi training in order to fight against Darth Malak’s remaining Sith forces. Warning: spoilers ahead (although, this game is well past the statute of limitations for spoilers). In what was possibly the most shocking twist in the Star Wars universe since the revelation that Darth Vader is Luke’s father in The Empire Strikes Back, the player discovers that their character is none other than Revan, the great Sith Lord they kept hearing about and whose forces they are now fighting against.

Disney Teasing Darth Revan For Possible Return Into Modern Canon
As I have said many times, Darth Revan is one of the greatest Jedi/Sith that has existed in Star Wars, and he is an absolute fan-favorite character. He is one of the characters fans have clamored to be put back into canon since the division between canon and Legends. Unfortunately, that meant that Darth Revan along with most characters and events from Knights of the Old Republic and the subsequent games in the series were thrown into Legends purgatory. However, Disney and Lucasfilm seem to be inching ever closer to giving us Darth Revan in canon, and we may have gotten our first real hint at that through The Rise of Skywalker.

Mena Massoud Shows Up As Ezra Bridger In Jaw-Dropping Concept Art
I think about Ezra Bridger all the time. When Star Wars Rebels started, I worried that the character would take after the too immature live-action Anakin. Thankfully, I was wrong. By the end of the series run of Rebels, Ezra Bridger proved to be a fantastic character that everyone adored. The finale ensured that there was indeed more to come. Now that we fans have a live-action Ahsoka, we want and deserve a similar Ezra.

You Don't Know These Facts About Darth Vader's Suit
Darth Vader’s silhouette is one of the most recognizable ones in cinema history. Even people who have never seen a Star Wars film and know nothing about the saga will most likely say something like, “Yes, this is the bad guy from Star Wars, the one with the breathing problems.”
