Star Wars Trailer Teases the Return of an Extremely Influential Jedi You've Never Heard Of

The old Star Wars Legends timeline may now be non-canonical, but it’s full of characters who influenced modern Star Wars canon. Some characters, like Admiral Thrawn, have even managed to jump from Legends to canonical shows like Rebels and Ahsoka. But most Legends characters were reduced to inspiration, like Jacen Solo, who was the framework for Kylo Ren, or Dark Empire’s resurrected Palpatine, who played out his scheme differently in The Rise of Skywalker.
