It's been over a decade since the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed video game series ended but the title's main character Galen Marek aka Starkiller remains popular amongst diehard fans of the franchise. Considered one of the best anti-heroes in the franchise, Marek was once a secret Sith apprentice of Darth Vader who would ultimately take control of his own destiny.
The character is voiced by Sam Witwer who is no longer a stranger to a galaxy far, far away. Now, it looks like Witwer has plans of joining Star Wars' live-action universe and in a recent tweet, the Darth Maul voice actor expressed his desire to play Starkiller in live-action.
Responding to a tweet that asks fans how they'd like to see Starkiller be presented in live-action — wielding one or two lightsabers, Witwer tweeted out a GIF image of Darth Sidious with the lines "all of them". Would be you down to seeing a Starkiller-centric project starring Sam Witwer? Check out his response below:

Now, it's worth noting that Starkiller, as good of a character as he is, is no longer part of the main Star Wars canon although there have been attempts to reintroduce him to the canon. The good news is, there's been an ongoing rumor claiming that Disney is open to the idea of making some characters canon again.
This obviously makes a lot of sense considering the company has been expanding the Star Wars universe via Disney+. However, the real question is, will Starkiller be among the characters who could return to the main Star Wars continuity? Only time will tell, I guess.
Meanwhile, the finale episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi will premiere this Wednesday on Disney+.
