Since Grand Admiral Thrawn is due for his live acted debut, and maybe Joruus C’Baoth too-why not Mara Jade? If they have the rights to Thrawn then they probably have the rights to the novels he dr hard on, along with all the other characters that appeared in them. And thanks to Gina Carano’s big mouth the planned spinoff around her character will never happen. If they are looking for a Star Wats series centered around a strong female protagonist, Mara would seem the perfect fit. Granted there would need to be be revisions to her story but sand goes for Thrawn, and with the confusion just Disney has established I could see ways to fit her in.

At this point in time I'd rather just pretend that Luke was either balls deep in the Force itself like a sort of monk... or had a massive harem of hot bitches that are always 5 feet to the right of the screen's edge. To have a wife/lover that's never mentioned would be a harder void to fill than Ahsoka never being mentioned in the movies, and it's taken umpteen hours of shows to only quasi-fill that void.

Pulling out my fantasy writing pen: Mara as one of Luke’s Jedi trainees, perhaps with hints that their relationship was growing into something else. Because they were so close he entrusted her with particular missions, including one that had her off-planet when Kylo Ren went on his rampage. When Luke goes into hiding she launchers her own solo quest to find him, and thus her own mini-series.

From the title of the thread I thought you had an actress in mind. I expected a hot red head and am disappointed.

Mara getting killed by Kylo could go some ways to further explain Luke's self imposed exile.

Not the most ideal choice in terms of acting ability, but visually Becky Lynch could pull off the look.

No. Not only do I demand a real redhead but I demand proof on screen. Full frontal Disney!

I struggle to think who all 3 are. ScarJo is the obvious one but I can’t think of the other two. I suppose if she is paired with the DeepFake Luke from the new shows, Rose Leslie is another choice. You know nothing, Luke Skywalker!
