The Sith who got cut in half said 'nah, I'm built different' and came back meaner.
A decade after being nearly destroyed by Obi-Wan Kenobi, Maul is resurrected and joins forces with his Nightbrother brother, Savage Opress, seeking revenge. They form alliances, target Obi-Wan Kenobi, and spread terror across the galaxy. The story culminates in a confrontation with Obi-Wan, with Maul and Savage also recruiting Hondo Ohnaka and his pirates.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
George Lucas personally mandated Maul's return, telling Clone Wars writers 'just make it work.' The spider-legs were his idea.
This film retroactively made Phantom Menace's wasted villain into one of Star Wars' most complex tragic figures — take THAT, 1999 haters.
