Samuel L. Jackson Says He's 'Ready' For Mace Windu To Finally Get A Comeback Story

With an abundance of Star Wars spin-off shows getting greenlit through Disney+, Samuel L. Jackson is hoping his iconic character will get a comeback story.

"He’s alive somewhere,” Jackson said.

He joked that the Jedi probably lost his arm and was still roaming around in the galaxy, and for our sake, we hope too.

The Pulp Fiction actor recently wrapped up filming the upcoming thriller Argylle with The Mandolarian director Bryce Dallas Howard and he made sure he asked her about the possibility of coming back to the Star Wars franchise.

“There’s a huge history of people with one hand returning in Star Wars… The only person I’ve ever said that to, about coming back, was Bryce Dallas Howard, ’cause I just did a movie with her and she directs episodes of The Mandalorian," he said.

“So, ‘You think you might be able to hook a brother up? You like me, right?’ And she’s like, ‘I love you! You’re amazing!’ So, ‘Put me back in there. Put me in, coach, I’m ready!’ I’ll learn to lightsaber left-handed, come on, hook me up!”

Many fans have taken to Twitter to express their excitement over the possibility of Mace Windu’s resurrection.

“We ALL KNOW Mace survived that fall. If Palps can be blown up and come back then Windu could have survived a little tumble lol.”

He wouldn’t be only the character rejoining the Star Wars universe after years of absence, as the highly anticipated Obi-Wan Kenobi series will star Ewan McGregor in the titular role and Hayden Christensen even returning as Darth Vader.

So please, Star Wars creators, let the purple lightsaber rightfully land back in the hands of Windu.
