Samuel L. Jackson: My ‘Star Wars’ Character is Still Alive

Date:

Samuel L. Jackson wants you to know his Star Wars character is still alive.

Samuel L. Jackson wants you to know that his character in the Star Wars franchise is not dead. Jackson played Jedi Master Mace Windu in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, a member of the Jedi High Council who was apparently killed after having his hand cut off by Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) and being shocked by Senator Palpatine’s Force. But, according to Samuel L. Jackson, that’s not what really happened. While talking to Entertainment Weekly, Jackson explained “Jedi can fall from amazing distances. And there’s a long history of one-handed Jedi. So why not?”

So why have we not seen Samuel L. Jackson since that scene? Jackson argues that his character has been laying low. The actor went on to say that he had shared his theory with Star Wars creator George Lucas. “George doesn’t have anything to do with it anymore,” he said, but gave his approval to the idea. “George is like, ‘I’m okay with that. You can be alive,'” he said.

I think a Mace Windu origin story, similar to the Han Solo movie, would be a great addition to the Star Wars franchise.
