Baylan Skoll’s journey may not be finished playing out on-screen just yet in the Star Wars universe.In the Disney+ series Star Wars: Ahsoka, late actor Ray Stevenson was featured in one of his final roles as the villain Baylan Skoll. The character was last seen standing on the ruins of the Mortis gods’ sculpture, teasing that the character’s story would be further explored in the future. Sadly, Stevenson died before the show’s debut, and Ahsoka creator Dave Filoni addressed the situation in new interview with Vanity Fair. Filoni spoke about the nature of the character, who truly didn’t see himself as a villain, while agreeing that there was still a lot of story potential for Baylan. With that said, no decisions have been made at this time regarding the character’s future, which would have to come with a recasting.”He’s a person that survived the Clone Wars, that was trained in the waxing-waning days of the Jedi Knights, just like Anakin,” Filoni explained. “He saw his order, his way of life fall apart. And he’s basically deemed it a failure: That way did not work. That it’s not something worth resurrecting… He’s tried to take these teachings that he learned as a young person and create his own way of being. And he’s looked at the cycle of things and said, ‘Enough with this. If I have this power, I should wield it. I should be the one making decisions,’ which a lot of people with power decide that’s the way to go. He’s also very certain that what he’s doing now is the right thing.”Katee Sackhoff Reacts to Rumors of Bo-Katan Becoming The Mandalorian’s New Lead Character
