Why Disney Refuses to Bring Back All the Prequel Actors

It doesn't matter if Windu is brought back from the dead or not. The Jedi Order had already fallen long before the Phantam Mentace even happened.

They respect the Prequels more now than they used to and the reason they didn't bring back Natalie or Sam is because Padme is dead and can't be a force ghost, Mace Windu also died and there's no point in him appearing as a force ghost, no Star Wars character has connections with him.

It's tough to imagine how, when Revenge of the Sith has little flexibly leading up to Andor/Rogue One/A New Hope.

His knowledge of the Force, the Jedi, Palpatine, etc. could be valuable to a resistance; A final lightsaber battle between Mace Windu and Darth Vader pre-Episode IV could be amazing - If he was struck-down in some sacrifice to carry the advance the rebellion, I think it would be worth it.

Can't agree more with everything you mentioned! Disney continues to ruin Star Wars for the true fans. After watching the Disney made movies and series it is an absolute disgrace what they did to such an amazing franchise. True Star Wars fans understand this, and if only the newer generationcould understand it as well. Disney needs to bring back the original actors and correct so many mistakes, or just give Star Wars back to George Lucas before they completely ruin it, they are alreadyon that track and I know many true star wars fans feel the same. My boyfriend and I often talk about much the newer Star wars films just absolutely suck, and how many mistakes Disney made and continues to make. Bringing back the original actors would be a dream come true! I often think about how Disney should make a Darth Vader series or movie about a dream Darth Vader has were he sees what it would of been like had he not turned to the dark side, been with Padme for the birth of their children and raised them together where Padme still is alive and he reaches his full potential as the chosen one. Praying that some day Disney will listen to the true fans and make Star Wars amazing again.

We got Ahmed Best back to be the Jedi that saves Grogu. We revisited Order 66 at least once a year since Jedi Fallen Order. We got Darth Maul in Solo that I hope they do something with him. We got Palpatine back as the final villain of the saga. We got our first glimpse of Darth Plagueis in live action. And Boba Fett was never a complex character.

For the longest time, Portman felt like she was too mature for Star Wars, that it wasn't the high art she was striving for, and that it didn't help her career. She was an arty-farty snob. Only when she decided to return to Thor, has she started to soften on popular films. Being a mother and witnessing children's interest in Star Wars probably played a role in that. Don't get me wrong, I have plenty of issues with Disney, but they're not the main problem on this one. Let's not also forget that Padmé is something of the Marie Antoinette of the prequels. That is, many fans have detested her with a burning passion ever since ROTS and scapegoated her for faults that weren't hers. Unfortunately, she has never been re-embraced in the same way that Anakin and Christensen has. Only Jar Jar is a more hated character.

Ok but with SLJ returning as Windu, it would have to be a pre-RotS flashback. Windu is dead and it is NOT up for discussion.

I like SLJ but he doesn't really understand his own character and why it just wouldn't work for Windu to still be alive. All I'm gonna say is this, it wasn't the fall that killed Windu, it was the full blast of lethal lightning Palpatine delivered to him. The jump out the window was simply his nervous system twitching like most do shortly after anything dies. Very common natural thing that happens on its own, just in his case it happened to be a force jump while he was right by a broken window, but he was 100% dead before that jump. On top of that.. Windu is quite frankly an overrated Jedi character. He and Yoda embody everything that was wrong about their Jedi Order and if you ask me, he got let off easy. Would've been better if Palpatine kept him alive for just a little bit, lock him away to Fortress Inquisitorious and let Vader take joy out of torturing him before killing him, because you know he would.... Shiii maybe that'd be the only way I'd accept it if they brought him back... but nah he dead. Deal with it. The lot of ya.
