“From the Lucasfilm Ltd emblem skewered on a laser sword to the fiery Maul – Shadow Lord logo, the trailer promises Imperial Inquisitors like The Crow (Eleventh Brother) and Marrok on the prowl, plus epic battles as the iconic villain Maul encounters the long arm of the law on Janix. Maul’s next confrontation will be fueled by his quest for revenge,” Lucasfilm explains.
