What the hell could that mean?

Hopefully nothing considering what happened with Park last year.

Did that get cleared up?

No idea. But can we just put Sam in the makeup already? That said, considering how Rebels went, it would be pretty crazy for Obi-Wan to run into Maul. Then again, if Obi-Wan vision quest, I guess that could explain an encounter with Vader and Maul.

Sam needs big time work anyway just because he's so freaking versatile and talented.

So they're bringing in Maul. Interesting.

I'd love to see Witwer play Maul in live action - especially given the gaunt appearance Maul has in the shows that better matches him than Ray Park. Then there's the whole... you know, thing that happened with Ray Park last year, which... I'm going to hope that's not a new photo.

If that was a photo of you know what... Ray had better skip the urologist and go right to exorcism.

This might not even be for the Obi Wan series. Could also have something to do with the Lando series considering how things ended in the Solo movie

It was a bit of a saga and very murky.

Abridged version is that according to his wife, Ray was stoned out of his mind when he posted that and that it was an accident, (both the Parks are...notorious amongst those martial arts stunt people/actors for their weed habits...) and that a lot of the subsequent tweets that followed from people claiming to be their kids were trolls trying to stir the pot and that it was giving the family grief.

So, make of that what you will.

If you're going to do Sam Witwer as Maul then I want his voice replaced with the true, original Maul voice, Peter Serafinowicz.

I actually hated how he sounded different in Solo (the movies are always first for me in the go-to for a character and I just like his Maul voice better even if it's only 3 lines). Serafinowicz even recorded the lines!

True. But also you need to remember that a lot of fans these days grew up with TCW and to them Witwer's voice is the voice of Maul.

Hence why (unless you enjoy being a voyeur) people just need to avoid the temptation of recording it. Even if it is with a trusted spouse you still don't know what will happen in the future so best to not even go into that territory to begin with. In this day and age with how easy it is to upload that stuff to the internet anybody could find themselves on the internet doing the deed if they get into a habit of making videos of them and their partners.

This.

Just cast the better actor and be done with this needlessly complicated "physical actor + voice actor" schtick. It's been 20 years since Phantom Menace. I can forgive a recast at this point.

I was never really a Maul person until he showed up on Clone Wars and Rebels. Witwer really made the role his own, and combined with the writing took one of the Star Wars characters that was the picture of 'popular for a cool design and no personality' and made him just really interesting. Also, I mean...

Witwer Maul is best Maul.

Because of the writing.

I still prefer Phantom Menace Maul in voice/performance. Sorry folks. There's a reason 10 minutes of screen time became such a huge character.

Yeah. Character design and a franchise-best lightsaber duel.

 

[Breogan]

That's great, another GOT cast, loved her as Ellaria
Although I already knew Indira Varma from Rome before that, where she was also fantastic.
Great addition to this cast.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

I regularly forget that Maul even had lines at all in TPM, his job is just to look cool and be a credible physical threat. Witwer and Filoni are pretty much entirely responsible for actually making him an interesting character.
