In a recent interview with Empire magazine, Samuel L. Jackson, the renowned actor who portrayed Mace Windu in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, expressed his conviction that the character is still alive. While it appeared that Windu met his demise in Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith, being thrown out of a window by Emperor Palpatine's Force lightning, Jackson believes there may be more to the story.
When asked about Windu's fate, Jackson emphatically declared, 'HE'S NOT DEAD!!!' and expressed his willingness to reprise the role in a Disney+ series centered around the Jedi Master. The idea of exploring Windu's journey between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope seems intriguing, especially if he managed to survive his fall. It raises the question of why he wouldn't emerge to challenge Darth Vader and the Emperor's tyrannical rule, even if he was unaware of the survival of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda.
