    Who is most likely to reappear in your opinion? You can select more than one character.

    i wanted to tick loads of em.. really wanted to lol, but i ended with only Lando and Asajj. gotta see Lando at some point.. surely? and Ventress.. well i just think that she's too damn cool - gotta get her in the films somehow.

    from the rest of that list - the only character i'd truly love to see is Ahsoka. i would love to see JJ tackle getting her out of animation and into the films.. but i don't see it happening.

    maul, mace and boba? one is still being digested (so technically could still be alive but i wouldn't recommend it), one had his arm sliced off.. 50k of volts pumped through him and thrown from a 500ft building.. and maul.. which half of him is supposed to make it into episode 7? lol

    its a bit early into rebels to pick one of those to survive and to grab a place in the ST.. but if someone were to convince me that MVS wasn't a villian... could he possibly be Kanan?

    that leaves Plagueis. i'd say that the ep 7 main villain crosses my mind at least once a day currently.. i'm fascinated to see which way the films are gonna go in terms of bad guys. My gut tells me that it will be a brand new baddie/threat.. but... a little piece of me thinks that they could bring in a baddie that is very VERY old. Exar Kun/Ragnos/Reven to name but a few.. who knows but the possibilities are endless. pie in the sky stuff on my part here though.

    I don't know if you've watched the whole Clone Wars (considered canon) but Darth Maul is very much alive and well (at least.. his upper body is!). As for Windu - I know it's quite unlikely but we've seen Jedi survive falls from high altitudes. But he would have to be really, really old. Boba is being eaten alive but according to Lucas he would have survived and got out (I read it in an interview, can't find it now unfortunately). That's why I decided to include them on the list.

    i face palmed myself as soon as i started reading your reply.. with the mass canon purge and moving everything into the "legacy" box i find myself constantly making the same mistake of forgetting that TCW is in fact canon. forgive me everyone, i am a proper fan.. honest.

    yeah ok.. if he's still alive then you gotta think that unless he's in some sith retirement home somewhere then be involved at some point. i'd edge towards him not being in the ST though.

    for Windu to have survived.. i think they would have had to have shown him surviving in ROTS. *there are rumours around that Jackson has been asked by JJ to have a part in ep 7 mind

    Lucas did say that Fett had survived.. i think the sarlacc pit was a fitting end to him and i probably sit in a minority here in hoping that he died there. he is one of the most popular characters in the entire SW universe.. so i wouldn't be at all surprised if we see him again.

    Ezra from rebels seems to me the most likely to show up. It would be a good bridge between rebels and episode 7 and his age would allow him to still be active in the movie. Old but active. Maybe MVS character.
    Just a shot in the dark. Who knows

    Sam El Jaxxon said he is not in the movie and that the rumors were false.

    I thought the same, but not MVS. Ezra is the same age as Luke Skywalker.

    I think Lando is gonna have a holo-communication cameo. At the very least a mention. he's the only character that makes sense because he's the only one that anybody in this movie knows. (except for Boba...so maybe Boba...I hope not Boba). He's conected to Han and the gang so he'll show up.

    I'm also expecting some force ghost action. Yoda, Obi-wan, Anakin. I don't know which.

    Anyone else still mad at Dennis Lawson?:mad: I would have loved to see old man Wedge reunited with Luke, or just chillin with Lando and Han.

    They will probably imply that Wedge is dead or something.

    Didn'tknow Ezra was the same age as Luke, that's awesome. He could be alive and training jedi. Waiting on some distant planet for a new hope. When he hears about the fall of Vader and the emporor. He makes himself know to luke. I wonder if this is the case then maybe Luke defers to him as the master since he is more practiced. Maybe not more powerful but probably knows more force techniques perhaps even has some holocrons or some other jedi artifacts and training tools. Doubt this is the case but it would be kinda cool if Luke is struggling with his perspective of right and wrong and Ezra is there to point the way.

    I voted solely Lando, and I'm not sure about Billy Dee Williams even desiring to reprise his role... though apparently Wikipedia states he's voicing Lando in the Rebels series... (saw that when I went to make sure he was still alive :p ) At most I envision a cameo.

    Others I could see with a slight chance of appearing due to popularity among the fans, namely Ahsoka Tano, Asajj Ventress, and the three from Rebels. However I think their absence in the OT/Rebellion might be too difficult to explain (though not entirely impossible mind you).

    Honestly I feel Ahsoka and Asajj, who are both characters I enjoyed, need to make any new appearances in the Rebels only. I also feel they should be killed off at some point in the series, and absent from EP VII altogether.

    I voted Inquisitor and Plagueis. I think the main villain has to be someone that has some history. While Plagueis has nothing but a few lines of exposition in ROTS, it's enough of a "myth" or backstory that it could set him up as the big baddie beautifully. I could see Inquisitors, while NOT Sith per se, being used as pawns in his master plan.

    BTW- I think Billy Dee most definitely would jump at the chance to reprise his role. However, why must everyone appear in Episode VII? I don't think everyone is going to die in E7, in which case it would be apropos for Lando to return in Episode VIII (symmetry or echoing).

    Lastly, Mara Jade should have been on the list.

    With the rumors of Yavin 4 being a location, Exar Kun would be an iteresting addition. Even if just mentioned or shown in a relief sculpter or something. Throw the EU fans a little apology bone.

    No, "None of the Above" option?

    Yoda's an unannounced character I believe will have a cameo. Him and Vader.

    I don't think any of these characters will "appear".

    It wouldn't be surprising to hear some more backstory on Dark Plagueis, especially if one of the leads is a sith-geek as the leaks suggest. But that's the most I'd expect.
