After the Clone Wars, Maul plots to rebuild his criminal syndicate on a planet untouched by the Empire.
During the 20th anniversary Lucasfilm Animation panel at Star Wars Celebration Japan, surprise guest Sam Witwer took the stage to reveal his return to the galaxy as the star of the next animated series — Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord.
Witwer first portrayed Maul in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, later reprising the role in Star Wars Rebels. In a new series set after the events of the final season of The Clone Wars, Maul rises again to lead the underworld factions.
Fans attending the panel in person got an early look at the series’ new animation style with an in-room-only sizzle.
Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord is currently in production and will debut on Disney+ in 2026.

Yeah, I'm pretty fired up about this. Feels like a way to bring Qi'ra back, too. Finally get that Solo spin-off/sequel folks have been wanting to see.

Makes sense. It's hard to turn a antagonist into a protagonist. There has to be something even worse for them to push against.

I watched the whole interview. He speaks on we’re still the bad guys. But there’s far worse bad guys. He didn’t elaborate.
I’m stumped. The crime gang maybe? Worse than the sith?

Yeah, that's what I was saying. Makes sense to me.
Maul is a crime lord in this. So the "worse" bad guys have to be the Empire.

A year or so after Order 66.
It's after The Clone Wars and before Solo in the timeline, I believe.

Actually, its relationship to the timeframe of Solo was exactly what I was curious about.
