Star Wars Rebels Clip Teases Obi-Wan/Darth Maul Rematch
Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Maul will face off once again in next week’s episode of “Star Wars Rebels.” Maul continues his quest for vengeance against the Jedi in the second last episode of Season 3, titled “Twin Suns.”
The rivalry between the two began in “Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace,” which resulted in Kenobi besting the former Sith. In the animated series “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” Maul returned and stirred up trouble for the Jedi through multiple encounters, but never fulfilled his goal of revenge.

After many years, Maul has finally tracked down Kenobi all the way to the desert wastes of Tatooine in what is framed to be their final battle. The clip shows Maul’s obsessive and clearly unstable mind, and briefly teases the two drawing sabers before another showdown.
“Star Wars Rebels” follows the adventures of a group of rebels aboard the star ship Ghost. The events of the show occur five years leading up to the original Star Wars film, “A New Hope.” The crew of the Ghost include Ezra Bridger (Taylor Gray), Kanan Jarrus (Freddie Prinze, Jr.), Sabine Wren (Tiya Sircar), Garazeb Orrelios (Steven Blum), Hera Syndulla (Vanessa Marshall) and C1-10P, AKA Chopper.
