SPECULATION Will Ezra finish his training and become a Jedi or will he fall to the Dark side?

in this one strong the dark side is...

 

Great topic for debate.

 

I think it'd be hilarious if Vader kills the whole cast in the final episode.

 

This is one of my possible theories for this show...

Ezra's family is alive. Vader and the Inquisitor use this to their advantage in order to gain leverage over Ezra. He gives up the rebel cell to save his family and is betrayed by the inquisitor and Vader. Imbaresed and ashamed Ezra goes into hiding.

Another thought...

Vader and the inquisitor lie to Ezra and convince him the rebels caused his family's death/disappearance. Ezra betrays the rebel cell. And then Vader takes Ezra on as an inquisitor.

 

I have a bad feeling that Ezra and Kanan are going to have their own Mustafar moment at some point, but this time the former pupil is going to win.

 

I could easily see that happening. At this point, I think pretty much everyone assumes that Kanan will not be alive at the end of the show, and while it is probably more likely that the inquisitor kills him, I could still see a situation where ezra kills off both Kanan and the inquisitor, and becomes an inquisitor himself.

 

I don't fully dislike that plotline, but I highly doubt Disney will go that way. It would be a very sad, dark, gloomy end for a kid's show.
I do think Kanan will die, likely killed by the Inquisitor. Then, lead by rage in a little un-Jedi action, Ezra get vengeance. After that, regretful, he go hiding, or perhaps he start helping the Rebel Alliance in a Batman/Zorro vigilante way. It isn't either the brightest end possible, but it has a glimmer of (new) hope on it...

 

Lots of mask forshadosing.

He collects them.
He puts them on to hear the enemy com.
He puts them on to go undercover.

 

Very interesting to read all these thoughts. I think I can sum up a few of the scenarios I've heard, and I'll limit it to just Kanan and Ezra:

1) Both survive, go into hiding (not speculated very much)
2) Kanan dies, killed by the Inquisitor. Ezra goes into hiding.
3) Kanan dies, killed by the Inquisitor. Ezra seeks revenge, goes Dark.
4) Kanan dies, killed by Ezra this time, on accident. Ezra goes into hiding (might go Dark).
5) Kanan dies, killed by Ezra, not on accident. Ezra has been duped by the Empire into thinking Kanan killed his parents or so.
6) Kanan dies, killed by Ezra, not on accident. Ezra has already gone Dark by this point. Small chance to redeem himself after?
7) They both die, killed at the same time doing something heroic.
8) They both die, but one dies first, at least a few episodes before the other dies at the end of the series.

The trend is of course the Kanan is a definite goner, while Ezra's fate is unclear. But what if it's Kanan who survives while Ezra dies through some sacrifice for the rebellion? Or what if it's Kanan who kills Ezra at some point?

This is quickly becoming quite the interesting topic. I suppose it's actually the first time since 1983 that we had something for Star Wars in which we don't know the fate of the main characters.

 

I feel if Ezra goes dark, he will go rogue, not siding with Vader. He hates the Empire, I see no reason for him to join them.

 

Indeed, I couldn't see him siding with them either. It would probably take a lot of "persuasion" to bring out such a change, and I doubt Disney is willing to go that dark.

 

I still can't make up my mind--I think Ezra killing Kanan and going dark (only to be redeemed) makes a more compelling, if familiar, story. But, the cynical part of my brain wonders how that would go down in a Disney cartoon. BUT we did see the Inquisitor killing Kanan in Ezra's force hallucination/dream in the caves under the temple, and the Clone Wars got pretty heavy at times, so I'm kinda stumped...

 

I'm going to go with The 'Quisitor killing Kannan in front of him (like in the episode) but this time, since it was real Ezra will freak out and kill the 'Quisitor in a blind rage. With that Ezra will go into seculsion, hiding out for a while until found by Luke after the events of Return of the Jedi but before The Force Awakens. I feel it will be covered in a comic or a novel.

 

I think you may be on to something. The very Disney/Lucasfilm multi-media tie-in clinches it for me!

 

That seems a sensible route, and one I would buy into. It would go along with the casting of Miltos Yerolemou for TFA, who bears quite a resemblance to Ezra. I don't like to throw around wild rumors, but it does go well with your theory.

 

Eh.... maybe.
