Explore how the Star Wars: Maul TV show, Shadow Lord, brings to life two abandoned George Lucas concepts: the cancelled Underworld series on Coruscant’s criminal depths and his original sequel trilogy plans featuring Maul as a post-Empire crime boss with a Darth Talon-inspired apprentice. As the Lore Knight, I unpack the lore connections, from Maul’s revival in The Clone Wars to Crimson Dawn in Solo, authentic facts on Janix planet and Devon Izara, and why this 2026 project honors Lucas’s vision in canon. Ideal for fans seeking villain-focused stories and deeper galactic insights. #starwars #starwarsfan #darthmaul
