Star Wars: The Old Republic is one of the best Star Wars games to date. You know we love it and we know our readers love it. Now what if there was a new show set in the Old Republic era? Netflix wants to bring us just that. Almost 200,000 fans have petitioned to Disney via Change.org for an “Old Republic Era” TV series and it seems like Disney is taking notice. According to the recent scoop from Hollywood Reporter, Ted Sarandos (Chief Content Officer) at Netflix had some initial talks on this subject with Disney. The rumor says there are even some great scripts they are going through to see if the series would be a good fit. It’s definitely something exciting that we plan to follow to see what happens with it.
We still have no idea if it’s actually going to be a thing (here’s hoping) but Entertain-O-Rama has some ideas of who the actors should be:
- Scott Eastwood as Revan
- Naomi Scott as Bastila Shan
- Michael Fassbender as Darth Malak
- Tom Hardy as Darth Sion
- Conan Stevens as Zaalbar/ Hanharr
- Elena Satine As Meetra Surik
- Stephen Lang as Darth Malgus
- Derek Mears as Darth Nihilus
- Helen Mirren as Darth Traya
- Peter Facinelli as Carth Onasi
- Jason Isaacs as Canderous Ordo
- Kate Beckinsale as Atris
- Sahar Biniaz as Queen Talia
- Garrett hedlund as Atton Rand
- Hailee Steinfeld as Mssion Vao
What do you think of those picks? Would you prefer to see other actors in those roles? How excited would you be for a Netflix series like this?
