Properly, other than being one other legacy character for whom death is a revolving door or one thing to ceaselessly lie about for the drama of all of it, Ventress’ return within the closing season of The Unhealthy Batch raises numerous attention-grabbing questions on how she’ll match into occasions, and extra broadly into this period of Star Wars. In any case, we thought she didn’t survive to see Sidious’ rise and his final plan to type the Empire truly come to fruition—however now she has, so what’s going to her place in all that be? Is she serving to the Batch to rescue Omega from the clutches of Mount Tantiss, or do they encounter on another mission?
The place they may discover her is attention-grabbing, too. The trailer additionally contains what seems to be a return to the planet Teth—which was first launched within the unique 2008 Clone Wars film, and the place Obi-Wan and Ventress first crossed blades. Bringing Ventress again and having it related to the primary battle we noticed her in can be an attention-grabbing parallel, and likewise maybe Unhealthy Batch coming full circle on an animated model and story that started 16 years in the past.
There’s additionally one other necessary query: if Ventress survives this second likelihood at life and comes out of Unhealthy Batch in as soon as piece, the place does she go from right here? Abruptly, there may very well be much more tales to inform with Ventress, as a substitute of getting her, as we’d seemingly thought for practically a decade, perish earlier than the subsequent chapter of her post-Sith life might actually start, to have saved and redeemed Quinlan Vos. May Ventress survive the rise and fall of the Empire? What would she be doing in that point?
And, maybe, given simply how vital Dathomir and the Nightsisters have turn into to the occasions surrounding the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn within the occasions of Ashoka, the timing of Ventress’ survival is very attention-grabbing certainly. Maybe we could be setting the stage in Unhealthy Batch for her eventual arrival in live-action Star Wars? An Ahsoka team-up after every thing they’ve each gone by way of can be very intriguing (and actually very humorous, given their histories).
We seemingly gained’t get a solution to all of those questions instantly, however we must always begin getting solutions to not less than just a few of them when The Unhealthy Batch’s third and closing season begins streaming on Disney+ February 21.
