Mace Windu quickly became a fan favourite following his initial appearance, even more so during the finale ofStar Wars: Attack Of The Cloneswhen he pulled out a purple lightsaber, the first one in the series’ history that wasn’t blue, green or red, which was something Jackson was very keen on since purple is his favourite colour.

Samuel L. Jackson certainly thinks so. In fact, in aninterviewwith Empire Jackson openly confessed “HE’S NOT DEAD!!!” when asked about the fate of his character, and when asked if he’d be down for a live-action Disney+ series his response was “EVERYTHING YES!!”

Well you heard the man Disney, bring Mace Windu back for a miniseries and give the man the story continuation he deserves. If a Jedi on par with Yoda can’t get a series, what’s the point.
