So this seems to be the title of the Leslye Headland star Wars TV series.

Female Sith Lord? Could be freaking awesome and bout time we get some Stories from the Darkside!!!

So my inner geek has exploded with all these announcements.

I would really like a show about a secret sith apprentice. Almost Force Unleashed like!

Would love a Darth Talon but I very much doubt the Mouse will go that far lol

Agreed, hugely unexplored on screen.

I get the hype but remember it's Headland and she's very keen (guaranteed?) to make it align with her (and KK's) agenda.
I'llll temper my excitement until I see whether this is more political posturing (like The Last Jedi) or actual Star Wars (I'm looking at you, Mando).

If rumours are to be believed that's why they are throwing Children of the blood and bone at KK. She has free reign on that.

It's hard to escape any sort of politics these days it's seems just as long as it's not woke trash and stick to the fundamentals I'll be happy.

Heck put KK in the bloody thing as the Sith Lord and let her apprentice throw her off a bridge to gain power and the show will be an instant hit.

Is he the one that started the rule of 2? I've read a lot of starwars books (the sheer quantity of them is crazy). Generally good books.

Darth bane. I have those books above my bed. They are unbelievable reads and gripped me from start to finish.

Some of Darth Talon pictures are not NSFW lol

I googled and I see what you mean

I went straight in at the deep end and googled ‘Darth Talon NSFW’ :eek:

Nice lekkus

Kyo · 11 Jan 2021 at 18:33

Not sure how accurate this is but Kathleen Johnson just fired the director for this series to make way for...... ***Drum roll*** Rian Johnson! :rolleyes:

God help this show if the last Jedi nonesense is anything to go by. You would have thought KK learnt her lesson when she tries to shoe horn some Politically Correct message into the show rather than concentrate on SW.

Gray2233 · 11 Jan 2021 at 19:00

I'm not watching anything Rian Johnson is involved in, KK is the one that needs to be fired.

Bigpig · 12 Jan 2021 at 06:29

Mike Z. Wouldn't put to much faith in that he makes like 10 videos a day of trash with somebody new getting fired.

checjb · 12 Jan 2021 at 08:36

Yeah, he really does. As well as his clickbait titles, he seems to make extensive use of the "throw enough excrement at the wall and see what sticks" theory.

LeMson · 12 Jan 2021 at 08:55

This poor cow being milked

Ayahuasca · 12 Jan 2021 at 09:01

I hope the above is nonsense as this will be a ****show, literally, if Rian is directing.

Bigpig · 22 Jun 2021 at 05:52

Sooo Headland did an interview. This isn't going to end well.

Leslye Headland interview on her new show:

•Thinks Star Wars is about poltics & fan opinions aren't valid.

•Hired a writer whose never seen Star Wars.

•Female & Queer representation is a top priority. "I literally cry whenever I see it."

CaptainRAVE · 22 Jun 2021 at 07:27

Disney have destroyed Star Wars.

DrToffnar · 22 Jun 2021 at 14:41

So long as it's all been scripted ahead of time by people who know the material I don't see what the issue is. He's a great Director who should be allowed to do everything but write for the series imo.
