    In TCW (and Rebels) he ends up with some very normal-looking cybernetic legs. So, he won’t have any chicken legs in Solo, thankfully.

    No I haven't, really. And reading more of said 'rumors' he's not much more than a cameo. Just not a Maul fan is all. His death in TPM was fine with me. [face_dunno]

    Maybe the rumors are bogus, maybe not. But Darth Maul never liked those first set of monstrous legs either(read the Ahsoka novel), and he was never shown actually dead in TPM(like Snoke was in TLJ), in fact he was quite alive as he fell down the shaft. He never died in that TPM film. From what I been reading his hologram cameo is something similar to Vader's on Rebels Season One pilot that aired on ABC . If he was more in the film all the characters would be dead and the film would be no more than 2 minutes .

    the point is a lot happened to maul after his return and a lot of questions were answered. maul ended up a lot different than his first tcw appearance.

    They’re not bogus. It’s pretty much 100% confirmed that Maul appears at the end of Solo.

    @Bor Mullet


    I know, that part of the comment was for the sake of argument as its still a "rumor".

    It could be something like that, but he might also just be using the standard “BBY / ABY” dating convention.

    True, though that seems like more of a Hidalgo thing to do then a Producer thing to do...

    I’m gonna hold on to my theory that the story revolves around a Yavin native who accidentally discovers the abandoned Rebel base for as long as logic allows it. :)

    It was probably a simple mistake.
    Got his death stars mixed up.
    It happens.

    He probably doesn't care about the timeline details too much. It's set a little bit after the old movies. That's enough for him. It's the Lucasfilm guys who have set an exact time.

    But he was actually pretty specific about 7 years after Yavin, and just a few years after Endor. Which makes me think that the dates are important for the drama he’s writing, for one reason or another.

    I just figure Pablo or someone else gave him a time. A backdrop of the series might involve trouble with remenants of the Empire and reuniting a New Republic.

    It's just my experience with directors and writers in SW that they aren't as hooked into the Canon as the fans are. They've just got a story to tell.

    I get that completely. Which is why I'm surprised he didn't say something vague like "it happens right after the originals." He actually used Yavin as a reference point. Which makes me think he remembers that detail not because he's fully plugged into the lore like a hardcore fan, but because Yavin (or the battle of Yavin) factors into his scripts somehow.

    Maybe he's just a dork.

    Maybe. If so, he's a sophisticated dork, having pronounced it "Yah-vin."

    The French pronunciation is "Yah-vahn".
    And in Germany, there's YaVIN DIESEL! (Ja!!! VIN DIESEL!)

    It would not be unlikely that Maul and Maz did not encounter one another during the Dark Times as they seem to both be in the same circles, as was Han.
