26 Years Later, Star Wars' Newest Show Will Finally Solve A Huge Palpatine Mystery

Lucasfilm

At this point in Star Wars’ history, only watching the movies only gives you half the story. If you watch Rogue One, Cassian Andor is already a grizzled spy. If you watch Andor too, then you get an entire backstory exploring his transition from self-centered opportunist to true Rebel believer.

There’s no better example of this disparity than Darth Maul. For movie fans, he’s the quiet villain who was sliced in half in The Phantom Menace. But for TV viewers, that’s only the beginning of his story. An upcoming show will not only flesh out this misunderstood character, but solve one of the biggest mysteries in Star Wars canon.
