Freddie Prinze Jr. MaGrant Davis (Pomojema) Dave Filoni, Rogue One, Star Wars. Then again, with how slippery he is, he's just as liable to steal a ship and blast off into space to continue to run his own criminal rebellion, Crimson Dawn, from the shadows until he encounters Ahsoka again on Malachor. Dave Filoni Did Not Direct the Big Darth Vader Scene at the End of ‘Rogue One’. He still has a Jedi Cruiser full of clones to get through if he wants to escape, so this could just be a taste of what's to come. While we already know how Maul's story ends, with only one episode of The Clone Wars left, one of the most exciting remaining puzzle pieces is what happens to Maul. Related: Clone Wars Makes Rebels’ Ahsoka vs Darth Vader Moment More Tragicĭarth Maul has regularly been cited as a major missed opportunity in the Star Wars prequels since he was killed off at the end of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, but his second life on The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels hasn't only secured his place as one of Star Wars' coolest characters, but it also gives him one of the most dynamic character arcs in the entire franchise. When Maul begins yanking blasters out of their hands, the clones retreat through the blast doors at the end of the hallway, in true Star Wars fashion only for the former Sith apprentice to reach out with the Force and yank one troopers' arm back through the blast door as it closes and severs the arm. The Clone Wars certainly hides some of the more gruesome imagery with clever camera work, but the implied violence, and Maul's power on visible display, allows Maul to truly live up to his reputation like no scene before.Īs Ahsoka takes Rex's tip and tries to track down information on Fives, the clone that first discovered the inhibitor chip back in season 6, Maul is shown literally tearing the ship apart with the Force as he uses bulkheads as shields to block the clones' blaster bolts before throwing it down the hallway to decapitate a group of clones as more wall panels are ripped apart from either side of the hallway to smash other clones between them. Rogue One which is set just prior to the events of New Hope ends how Episode IV begins, with Princess Leia in possession of the Death Star plans stolen by Jyn Erso and her Rebel crew. What follows is one of the most visceral displays of raw Force power in Star Wars canon. While Vader had his scene in Star Wars: Rogue One, and it certainly is brutal, the dark lighting and use of a lightsaber hides a lot of the details and leans more into the horror than the action. While ultimately childs play for the Dark Lord, Darth Vader slaughtering an entire squad of Rebel soldiers in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will always be one of his greatest feats on-screen.
