Hvis du kender din Star Wars, vil du vide, at Sam Witwer er en af de mest passionerede fyre omkring IP. Han spiller Starkiller i Star Wars: The Force Unleashed-spillene, samt portrætterer Darth Maul i Star Wars: The Clone Wars og Star Wars: Rebels-serien, og han leder nu sit eget projekt i Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord.
Dette er noget, Witwer ikke var sikker på, nogensinde ville ske. I en tale på Katee Sackhoff Show forklarede han, hvordan han, da han indspillede Rebels and The Clone Wars, havde ideer til Darth Maul, men fik at vide, at dette ikke er hans show.
Nu har han sit eget show, Maul får meget mere dybde.
"This isn't going to be a show where you find out Maul is a real teddy bear, man. But is he as bad as Sidious or Vader? Actually no. From the Sith perspective, this guy has flaws."
"[There's] humanity that seeps in at various points ... because of things that have happened to him. Maul comes from a time of swords, sorcery, magic and knights, and now all of that color of the universe is being sucked out of this mechanized Empire. And Maul's like, 'Is this right?'"
Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord er planlagt til at udkomme engang i 2026.
