Mace Windu's Star Wars Return Feels More Likely Than Ever - Is That Good?
The legendary Jedi Master Mace Windu is theorized by some Star Wars fans to have survived his prequel-era demise, but his return to the franchise seems more likely than ever before, for better or worse. Mace Windu was a prominent member of the Jedi Order in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, equaled by perhaps only Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Though he was one of the Jedi Order’s most valiant members and certainly one of its most skilled warriors, Windu was betrayed by Anakin Skywalker and killed by Palpatine (Darth Sidious). Windu’s survival is possible, however, considering that more obvious character deaths have been retroactively undone in the Star Wars franchise and the support for Windu’s return among both fans and his actor, Samuel L. Jackson.
Jedi Master Mace Windu was a leading member of the prequel-era Jedi Council in the final days of the Galactic Republic. Windu had a reputation for being the Jedi Order’s finest combatant, but he adhered closely to the Jedi way and was a strong believer in the Republic’s democracy. Naturally, Windu became a grimmer character at the onset of the Clone Wars, as he found himself forced into the position of a military general and watched as the Republic that he adored gradually became twisted into an authoritarian regime in all but name. Despite this, Windu fought bravely during the war, showing compassion for the citizens he protected and the Clone Troopers under his command, as shown in canon and Legends-era materials.
