Dave Filoni’s new animated Star Wars series Maul – Shadow Lordfollows the former Sith lord (Sam Witwer) as he seeks vengeance against his former crime syndicate allies and looks for a new apprentice. The Mandalorian Rook Kast (Vanessa Marshall) serves as Maul’s right hand, helping him set up operations on Janix, an urban world on the edge of the new Galactic Empire’s control.
