What are your thoughts on Maul’s new apprentice? What role do you think she’ll have in relation to Maul and do you think she’ll go back to the Jedi ways or fully commit to Maul’s views?
Based on what we see in the trailer, I think that we're coming in at very early empire days. There's a lot of resistance, the padawan still has that spark of fighting back, and the inquisitors are hot on the trail. I wouldn't be surprised if we open the show with a cold open to Maul directly after the last time we see him in "Victory and Death". So this to me tells me the padawan is likely scared, pissed, and looking for anyone they can trust. I like how scrappy she seems, and if what I said above is correct at all, I think she'll be wicked vulnerable to being pulled in different directions which, if done well, could be so interesting to watch as she grows within herself and in the world.
I think we're going to see Maul go hard into taking this lost padawan as his own or at least as an ally, similar to what he tried with Ahsoka and Ezra. I can't decide on why he wants a newly lost padawan so early. Ahsoka made sense due to her connection with Anakin. Ezra was for the sith holocron. Did he locate the holocron this early on? Does he think that any former jedi can help him topple the emperor? I doubt either of those being yes, so I'm wicked excited to see why he's taking them under his wing unfold in the show. Then to the last question - will she go back to being a jedi or commit to Maul - I honestly don't know! Like I said earlier, she's in such a vulnerable spot for being influenced, and as much as I love my post-order-66 padawan babies sticking to their jedi ways, there's something wicked delicious about watching someone take a grayer road. I don't think we'll see her go full sith, but I could envision her toeing the line of the gray jedi way!
