Wild Star Wars Rumor Claims Samuel L. Jackson Could Be Coming Back As Mace Windu, And As A Longtime Fan I’ve Got Conflicted Feelings

As a gamer and long-time Star Wars enthusiast with a heart full of nostalgia for the galaxy far, far away, I must admit that the latest rumor about Samuel L. Jackson possibly returning as Mace Windu has me both excited and cautiously optimistic.


Among all movie franchises, none quite matches the iconic status of “Star Wars.” This cherished series, now available for streaming through a Disney+ subscription, has been expanding its universe for decades, keeping fans enthralled by repeatedly watching the Star Wars films in sequence. The enthusiastic community eagerly anticipates future Star Wars movies and TV shows, and recent whispers suggest that Samuel L. Jackson could reprise his role as Mace Windu. As a fan myself, I must admit to feeling torn about this possibility.

For quite some time now, Sam Jackson has consistently expressed his belief that Mace Windu survived “Revenge of the Sith,” anticipating a chance to portray this role again in the distant galaxy. Recently, there’s been a buzz on Twitter from a reliable source suggesting that discussions are ongoing with Jackson about his return. However, I can’t help but express concern that whatever project this may be for, it might not meet the high-quality standard that both the character and Jackson deserve.

The debate about whether or not Mace Windu was alive has been going on for years now, so there’s a a ton of hype and expectations surrounding any potential reprisal for Sam Jackson. And since Star Wars shows have ranged in quality over the years, I’m hoping it more Andor than The Acolyte.

There’s no telling what the rumor concerning Sam Jackson’s potential comeback entails; it could be anything from a film role, a voice acting gig in an animated series, or even a TV spin-off. If it turns out to be just a small appearance or a brief TV episode, then maybe the significance isn’t too significant. But if Mace Windu is slated for his own project, I hope it lives up to expectations.

Ewan McGregor’s performance in the “Obi-Wan Kenobi” TV series was strong, suggesting that Lucasfilm might successfully conclude the storyline. Since there’s a broader narrative connecting both the prequels and original trilogy to draw upon, we can expect key elements like a reunion with Darth Vader, young Leia, and Luke Skywalker. However, if Mace Windu somehow survived his apparent death at Palpatine’s hands in “Revenge of the Sith,” what happens next remains a complete enigma.

Time will reveal if this rumor is true, but given Samuel L. Jackson’s persistent enthusiasm for his iconic Star Wars character, it seems plausible. This is the very same anticipation that led him to wield a purple lightsaber as Master Mace Windu when he first appeared in the prequel trilogy.

It’s been quite some time since “The Rise of Skywalker” concluded the Skywalker Saga and the franchise has continued to thrive in cinemas. Although Lucasfilm has announced a new trilogy, the schedule for these upcoming projects remains uncertain. Who knows? There could be a possibility that one of them might feature Mace Windu.

As a dedicated space saga enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that the entire Star Wars universe is now available for streaming on Disney+! And if you’re like me, always eagerly anticipating the next adventure, don’t forget to keep an eye on those 2025 movie release dates. That way, we can mark our calendars for a fantastic New Year at the cinema!
