Thought dead, Darth Maul survived his injuries by focusing on his hatred of Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Jedi who cut him in half. His shattered body was dumped amid the refuse of the junk planet Lotho Minor, where the once deadly warrior fell into madness, staying alive on a diet of vermin.
Maul's Solo cameo directly sets up him working closely with Qi'ra - who he instructs to join him on Dathomir - against Tobias Beckett and his crew, which means against Han Solo.
Yes, that was the character formerly known as Darth Maul you saw in hologram form at the end of Solo: A Star Wars Story. The villainous character was first introduced in 1999's The Phantom Menace.
After Obi-Wan Kenobi famously cut the horned Sith Lord in half in The Phantom Menace, Maul resurfaced in The Clone Wars, became a crime lord by the time of Solo, and eventually was murdered by Obi-Wan (again!) in Rebels.
Of course, Maul did return in The Clone Wars series, having been said to have survived his “death” and been given robotic legs to continue his quest for revenge on Kenobi.
George Lucas decided to resurrect Darth Maul for The Clone Wars after developing the character of Savage Opress.
One of the biggest surprises in Solo: A Star Wars Story was the cameo by Darth Maul in the closing moments of the film, who was physically played by Ray Park, who played the character in Star Wars: A Phantom Menace, and voiced by Sam Witwer, who has voiced Darth Maul in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels.
That character is Darth Maul (Ray Park, voiced by Sam Witwer), and if you haven't been keeping up with any of the ancillary “Star Wars” material surrounding the core film franchise — specifically the animated TV shows that he's prominently appeared in — seeing him again was probably a bit of a shock.
The rule has always been that there are only two — a master and and apprentice — nothing more. For that, and a few other reasons, Maul set out for revenge against the Sith, and became the leader of his own crime syndicates. It also officially removed the 'Darth' from his name, making him just 'Maul.
As seen in Dark Horse's Star Wars Tales anthology series, a short story saw Luke facing Maul shortly after the fall of the Empire. However, this version of Darth Maul's revival was very different from the one that would eventually occur during the canonical Clone Wars animated series.
Darth Maul died during a final battle with Obi-Wan in the Rebels TV series, and Palpatine couldn't have cared less. For him, finding and killing Maul for his failure simply wasn't worth the effort.
In the now-abandoned Legends continuity, his birth name appeared to be Maul, with the title of "Darth" simply added to it when he was taken on as an apprentice by Darth Sidious.
The tale depicts one of the first times Darth Maul ever began to question the loyalties of his master long before he was eventually replaced by Count Dooku in the films.
Conclusion. Since that unfortunate day on Naboo, Maul hated Obi-Wan for sending him into a life of suffering and disappointment. Maul spent years plotting his revenge and was able to get a portion of it by killing Duchess Satine in front of Obi-Wan.
Physically speaking, he died from exhaustion after his battle with Obi-Wan (in Star Wars Rebels). The only reason why he didn't die sooner was because of his anger (no seriously), his anger fueled him to get all the way to finding Obi-Wan but once he lost, his anger faded away and he died from the after effects.
The Qi'ra Novel Likely Means Solo 2 Will Never Happen As A Movie Or Show. Though a new Qi'ra story is exciting, as that character deserves to have her story explored, it also means that a direct Solo movie sequel or even a Solo sequel show is less likely to happen in the future.
Today, however, Obi-Wan Kenobi director Deborah Chow says she believes that was never actually the case. In an interview for Total Film magazine, as first reported by GamesRadar, Chow says, "As long as I've been involved, we've never had Darth Maul in any of it."
No. He found peace with his death, only because Obi Wan assured him he would ultimately be avenged for all that happened to him.
Jackson's Mace Windu is dead. Obi-Wan's conflict with the Inquisitors in the episode brought him to a tomb of fallen Jedi. A set detail has reignited old discussions about Mace Windu's “death” in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith.
Qi'ra was sold into slavery by Proxima to the slave dealer Sarkin Enneb, who eventually sold her to Dryden Vos, the public leader of Crimson Dawn.
At the end of Solo: A Star Wars story, it's revealed Emilia Clarke's Qi'ra has been in contact with fan favorite Star Wars villain, Darth Maul, played once again by Ray Park.
In 54 BBY, the boy who would be dubbed Darth Maul was born the son of Mother Talzin on Dathomir. As a Dathomirian Zabrak male, he was a Nightbrother and had two blood brothers, Feral and Savage Opress. Later in his life, Maul claimed that he once had a real name but that he had long since forgotten it.
This was because of the way he was raised by Darth Sidious, the effects of the dark side on his mind, and the fact that Maul had good reasons to be so confident in his own abilities.
The gloomy planet Dathomir was ruled by the Nightsisters, an ancient order of witches who drew on the Force for their eldritch powers, but were neither Jedi nor Sith.
In one of the most badass Darth Vader moments, he responds to Darth Maul's last words, "what could you hate enough to destroy me?" with "myself" as he kills his opponent with his lightsaber. In the end, Vader reigns supreme against the reborn villain as his hatred drives him to be named the winner of the fight.
