Fans from all sides would love to see Sam in a live action Star Wars project. Starkiller becomes tough because you want Starkiller, but you want him to fit in live action’s “cannon” and the game was always intended more as a “elseworlds.” What I am pleased to say is as much as I want live action Sam in Star Ware, they are waiting for a great, meaty, excellent character. Now, once that happens with his voice talent watch makeup and bit character roles galore open up in addition to his “live action character.”
@@bradfeaster4177 I think they could do it. He is a clone so it would be easy enough to explain away why he is not as powerful anymore. So many options in the EU for that.
Do you know what I'd love to see? Sam Witwer and Cameron Monaghan as Starkiller and Cal Kestis respectively face off against each other and later team up in live action, making that jump from video games to live action.
Sam as Starkiller: You think you stand a chance against me? You're such a...Joker. *wink Cameron as Cal: Yeah you're too powerful. You'd be my...Doomsday. *wink Katee as Bo-Katan: Man this cringe hurts my skin. As if I rubbed it with...Poison Ivy. *wink Mark Hamill crashes in as Luke: You three aren't the only characters played by actors who also did big DC characters! HAHAHAHA! Sorry if this is cringe just thought this up quick.
@@dizman19 But then again, going by the events of The Force Unleashed 1 (the one that Sam Witwer argues could fit in Disney-era canon), Starkiller is also dead by the time A New Hope comes around.
I always thought that Keanu Reeves would make a great Revan from The Old Republic. However, with his age, and a desire to go younger, you could cast Sam Witwer as Revan.
He would be a great antagonist for a new trilogy featuring Quinlan Vos and A’Sharad Hett.. to see one redeemed and the other fall to the dark.. just like the Acolyte, but excellent!
It would be a massive crime to not let him portray the character in live action. I don’t care if Disney deems force unleashed “non canon” because it’s a hell of a lot more compelling of a story and atmosphere than most of their recent content
@@FinalConsensus it would be impossible before disney too. The point of his character is that he is OP. Thats just plain boring for a movie/show and is why the game is so short.
@@Friendlyfirefish yes, but no one would care if he got a little downgrade, cause we know he cant be more powerful than Anakin and the videogame powers cant all be used, but hell, he could be windu, obi level and it wouldnt matter. Just one of the most powerful jedi ever, close to anakin but not that much. It would be perfect and would be good enough. We dont need him making conffetti out of stormtroopers
@macarenatizonbermudez9919 oh, so now it's OK to "nerf" star wars. And now it's OK to not have a lightsaber slice up things into little pieces. Well I'm glad disney have your approval to do these things with this specific character. Shame they couldn't get your sign off for the other stuff they have done though.
The problem is that Starkiller is too OP to be canon. Also what do you want to be canon? Vader dying before A New Hope? Luke turning evil then getting murdered?
@Mephilis78 him existing, him fighting with the rebels...and the we can find him something else to do, cause ibvs he cant disrupt the movie canin, but that doesnt mean he cant be out there fighting the bad guys after having being one himself. And following what it seemed asokha was doing, him representing the son, the dark side, the other padawan of anakin. Tho i want him to still be good even if at first he is evel starkiller 🤣
I always hoped they would do this. They completely wasted the big moment of Ashoka meeting Luke. Having Luke and Ashoka taking on Vader's final apprentice and Mara Jade (could argue she's Palatine's final apprentice) being introduced would be great. Could close the book on the post OT/pre Sequel era so they can finally move on to something else.
Every one would love to see starkiller have his own show and or appear in live action fans would love that . I know I would absolutely freaking love that
Remember Kathleen Kennedy said we had no source material to draw from 😭😭. I would kill for a live action Starkiller. Honestly Sam should be running star wars. His knowledge and understanding of what the fan base wants and deserves. His understanding of the lore. Disney are so dull 😭 they could print money.
Most writers know that lore is not to be adhered to like some sort of religious text. It's fluid and can be included/dismissed at the writers whim to make the story work. And you want a guy with no writing credits to speak of to write a coherent story? Even if he was an accomplished writer, with the nerd level of understanding of the lore to go on he would have to dismiss plenty to make the plot workable which would make some "fans" irate. Then the "sell out" stuff will start flying.
I would kill for a third Force unleashed game and a movie. You know what would be cool if Star Wars would focus more in the legends stuff now that the Skywalker saga is done. It would kind of like the What if..? stuff Marvel is doing.
@@jok86erThat’s exactly what I’ve been saying. A what if series of movies and shows from here on out would be amazing and they could absolutely do it. A large number of the cast from the prequels haven’t aged that much
I really dig the fact that Dave brings people who did voice work on his animated shows into his live action wherever it made the best fit. It wasn't as Gar Saxon for boviosu reason but he did bring in Ray Stevenson (RIP) for Baylan Skoll in Ahsoka, Katie for Bo, and probably some others I am spacing on. I hope he eventually brings Kevin McKIdd back as Fenn Rau but would just be happy to see him in Star Wars live action. With the loss of Ray Stevenson, I would love if they recast, Rory McCann (The Hound from GoT) would fit the role pretty damned well. Big dude, has range as an actor and it would be fun to see him in the role of Baylan who is a more reserved character than we have seen him in before. The loyalty that Lucasfilm seems to have to their performers is really refreshing.
I've wanted to see Sam Witwer in a live action star wars role for years (as most fans) but I'm okay to wait more IF they pick an awesome character for him. A character with a great story arc that could be expanded in the comics/books/video games. I think seeing Starkiller is highly unlikely at most, but I'm all in for ANY character!
The unfortunate reality of Starkiller is that he was so powerful if he came into live action he would probably bar Luke be the most powerful person in the Galaxy. In order for him to make sense and him to be canon he would need to be significantly nerfed and then the character would lose his edge and he probably would just be Grand Inquisitor levels of power. People would hate that.
I don't get it. Starkiller was pretty badass, and you have the actor still in his prime and can absolutely play the role, but it just hasn't materialized. Get it done, people!
@@mercurialfunk And they changed way too much stuff in canon for Force Unleashed's story to still work without major changes. And instead of butchering the story I prefer they don't touch it.
@chamoo232 They already have the Legends branding, they could do it easily enough imo. I just think the executives like to play it safe (Simon Kinberg trilogy) and it wouldn't fit their film branding.
I would come back to Star Wars if Sam Witwer played a live action action character, his love and knowledge of the characters would bring something to Star Wars that's been missing for a long time. As long as they let the man cook and listen to him
I've been waiting for some sort of continuation for Starkiller's story... animated, novel, comics, video game... I will hope one day we see the character again! Sam deserves another main role if they aren't going to do anything with Starkiller. Phenomenal actor!
I’m really hoping Dave Filoni or someone else high up in the Star Wars headers is aware of the fan demand for Sam to return as live action Starkiller. Personally, I’d prefer a standalone self contained adaptation of Force Unleashed 1 that ends with him dying like in the light side ending, that way, the rest of canon hopefully won’t get affected anyway.
These two are some of my favourite people in Star Wars and in the industry. Firstly they are hugely talented, they "get it" meaning they get Star Wars and the don't bullshit about stuff, they tell how it is. Also I'm a huge Galacita fan.
It would be great to see Starkiller in live action and I'm always in favor of Sam Witwer getting work. But I see their biggest storytelling challenge as representing Starkiller faithfully without completely obliterating the power scale and removing all narrative tension in the process. Not impossible, but a fairly difficult needle to thread.
It's crazy how so many fans haven't talked about this sooner. If handled properly, anything Starkiller related starring none other than the man himself would be a much needed breath of fresh air with the state Star Wars has been in, canon or not. I know several people who became SW fans from The Force Unleashed alone, and although his Darth Maul is cool I always see and hear Galen first.
Having briefly Mer Sam Witwer and Ray Park, was the coolest moment of my life. Sam is a brilliant human being and will be a huge player in the future. Believe it or not, hes not mainstream yet. He will be. Very soon..
What is tough for me is that Sam is Starkiller when it comes to live action in Star Wars, so I would want to see him in prosthetics or armor where he could use his incredible range of voice acting. The exception would be if they did the Mortis Arc from Clone Wars in which case he must be The Son.
I remember Sam when he was in Smallville as doomsday and the American variant of Being Human where he was the vampire from the American Revolution I know his voice so well I knew he was mall but I will always remember him as Starkiller if he were to play a live-action Starkiller I would be jumping for joy
The game was way head of the rest of the games & was fun & challenging, but storyline was really interesting and had a lot of potential for a movie or series
Please make a grounded star killer series come to life. Bring Vader and everything. It will be beautiful seriously. He doesn’t have to be ridiculous as the games.
If they made sam the head of lucas film or more involved in The writing of stories star wars would be an amazing franchise again, everything hes in is amazing and hes the main reason the force unleashed is an goated starwars series
Instead they hire writers who’ve never seen Star Wars to write unique Star Wars shows then call people bigots if they don’t like it and act confused as to why people aren’t loving what they’ve done
I totally get where he’s coming from, I run a small clothing brand and I have a friend who has a really successful brand that he is able to do as a full time job. I would never ask him to give me a shoutout or anything or do a collab just to get my name out there more out of respect for what he’s built. I’m sure we’ll do a collab at some point but I want it to be on his terms
I can’t believe he played Kirk in that new Star Trek Unification short. Yes, they used AI. But his body language was William Shatner. And we ALL want Sam to be a live action Starkiller. Maybe if we got live action Cal, we could get a live action Starkiller together. I passed Sam and Chloe on the sidewalk in Anaheim at Celebration back in like 2015. I recognized him immediately kept walking as I told them to enjoy their night. Doubt they heard me. 😋
Sam as Galen Marek aka Starkiller is the one project I'd gladly pay to see in live action apart from Old Republic. In a perfect world it would've happened already lol. Maybe tweak a few things with the Force Unleashed story because it's a little messy but with Sam starring in the film or tv series it's an easy slam dunk.
I have been dying to see him meet Asoka in live action both apprentice's of Anakin light and dark side but if they did do it is it before starkilla goes good or after 🤔
I don't know if Starkiller can fit into the current canon, but I would love Sam to appear in live action in some form. I'm surprised he hasn't had a cameo yet tbh, but he deserves a prominent role.
Here is a simple idea: since Sam is older, Starkiller in the Disney canon could have stayed loyal to Vader even after his death. That means that Starkiller would now be a threat to Luke, Ahsoka, Cal and Ezra. It could happen in the Mando verse and wouldn't break canon at all. In fact we need a powerful force user in the Mando verse now.
There is a possibility of having Starkiller with witwer in live action If its set in the Mandolorian timeline I can imagine SK being defeated again and keeping him in stasis in vaders palace then to be discovered by Ahsoka
Literally all i want is Sam as Live Action Star Killer. Better yet, a Force Unleashed III, as well, with him. PLEASE! Tbh, Disney needs to just have Sam run all of their SW projects, because he knows more about the source material than like anyone else.
I hope Starkiller can make a return through the Jedi series, I'd love for Cal and Starkiller to duke it out as the current gaming powerhouses of the franchise. I know the character was considered for Rebels season 3, and I'm glad that they didn't go that route as Starkiller is a game character that should be quite literally unleashed.
Live action force unleashed I’m in , this needs to happen , think he deserves a live action , would be the best choice I’m sure Aden would be up for it
We need a movie with Starkiller in it. He doesn't need to be ridiculously powerfull like in the games. He just need to be badass like Anakin. Powerful by the movies standard.
When he says that force unleashed was the first to use likeness... That's not true, Onimusha with Takeshi Kaneshiro was the first, followed by many 007 games that used Pierce Brosnan as well as Jet Li in Rise To Honor, tho technically, you could say as far back as Goldeneye would technically be the first to use likeness with the entire cast being incorporated in the game.
Those games used likeness but they were just 3d models made from pictures. What Force Unleashed did was 3d head scans and motion captures by the voice actors. Characters like Kota and Maris Brood's actors were in full makeup with fake scars and makeup for their head scans. For that, Force Unleashed was the first.
He is already Maul voice in Kenobi Season 2 likely. But I think Starkiller could also work in live-action in Kenobi Season 2, he gets too powerful leading Darth Sidious to cancel the Inquisitors program and tighten leash on Darth Vader. But they would have to rework the age. He could also be the Son in Ahsoka Season 2 The other possibility is obviously Starkiller being the antagonist in Jedi Fallen Order Survivor 3, or a reboot of The Force Unleashed videogame series. The first game could receive a reboot with a new engine and a slightly modified plot just to ground it more, and make it canon.
It is CRIMINAL, that they haven’t done a live action starkiller ANYTHING with Sam. After all that man’s contributions to Star Wars and Lucasfilm as a whole it baffles me that it’s never been done. Whoever is in charge needs to get their heads out of their asses and make it happen.
Yes Id love it if they made a little mini series that brought in Darth Vaders secret apprentice as canon. Then it fits into dave filonis little story arc revolvong around the mortis gods, Anakin is the Father, Ahsoka is the Daughter and Galen would be the Son. But what id also like is in the same way Ahsoka is fully good having been forged in war time and is somewhat fearful. Id like Galen who would be the dark side equivalent to ashsoka to not be irredeemablely, savagely evil like the Mortis Son was. Galen would be more like the Darkside of the force at Balance. Ans in that way Anakin had unknowingly through force of Habit brought balance to the force. And then hopefully this final story arc will involve abeloth, wouldnt it just be the best thing ever if Ahsoka and Galen had to join forces, the full scope of the force, dark and light in balance defending the galaxy.
I am willing to bet almost all the fans from either side would love to see Sam as a live action Starkiller!
OMG Please!!
Take all my money!!!!!!

A star killer adaptation would be as successful as Deadpool.
It really wouldn’t my guy. Star Wars reputation is in the toilet at the moment unfortunately.
Agreed
Extremely doubtful.
If they did it right, it would be more successful. Starkiller is one of the most interesting and powerful characters. On par with Revan in my opinion
I would watch the hell out of a Force Unleashed movie
The last command storyline. Trade the Luuke clone for A clone of Darth Vaders apprentice: Starkiller. Thrawn is already in live action.. so it works.
I always hoped they would do this. They completely wasted the big moment of Ashoka meeting Luke. Having Luke and Ashoka taking on Vader's final apprentice and Mara Jade (could argue she's Palatine's final apprentice) being introduced would be great.

I can’t believe he played Kirk in that new Star Trek Unification short. Yes, they used AI. But his body language was William Shatner. And we ALL want Sam to be a live action Starkiller. Maybe if we got live action Cal, we could get a live action Starkiller together.
I passed Sam and Chloe on the sidewalk in Anaheim at Celebration back in like 2015. I recognized him immediately kept walking as I told them to enjoy their night. Doubt they heard me. 😋
Sam as Galen Marek aka Starkiller is the one project I'd gladly pay to see in live action apart from Old Republic. In a perfect world it would've happened already lol. Maybe tweak a few things with the Force Unleashed story because it's a little messy but with Sam starring in the film or tv series it's an easy slam dunk.
If he doesn't end up playing Galen Marrick again, Sam would make an amazing Exar Kun.
I have been dying to see him meet Asoka in live action both apprentice's of Anakin light and dark side but if they did do it is it before starkilla goes good or after 🤔
I don't know if Starkiller can fit into the current canon, but I would love Sam to appear in live action in some form. I'm surprised he hasn't had a cameo yet tbh, but he deserves a prominent role.
Absolutely loved the games. Would love a new one or a live action series using stories from the games
Here is a simple idea: since Sam is older, Starkiller in the Disney canon could have stayed loyal to Vader even after his death. That means that Starkiller would now be a threat to Luke, Ahsoka, Cal and Ezra. It could happen in the Mando verse and wouldn't break canon at all. In fact we need a powerful force user in the Mando verse now.
I would love to see Sam as a live action Starkiller! He is my favorite SW character in games since Kyle Katarn.
Make him the Mortis brother in ahsoka season 2. Make it happen ,, since I know star killer will never be made..
There is a possibility of having Starkiller with witwer in live action
If its set in the Mandolorian timeline
I can imagine SK being defeated again and keeping him in stasis in vaders palace then to be discovered by Ahsoka
Literally all i want is Sam as Live Action Star Killer. Better yet, a Force Unleashed III, as well, with him. PLEASE!
Tbh, Disney needs to just have Sam run all of their SW projects, because he knows more about the source material than like anyone else.
He was GREAT IN SUPERGIRL!
I've been dying for Sam to be live-action Starkiller or some mention of him in the series. Lets do this before time slips by us!
I'd love to see Sam do a live action SW (maybe even write or direct one) but even as a side character in madndoverse stuff would be great.
I rather a 3rd TFU game first than live action show or movie, complete the trilogy or at least reboot it. Then live action appearance.
Star killer life would be insanely crazy good.
I could listen to these two talk for an eternity
7:15 he definitely knows a couple of things we do not 😂 “a leave falling from the tree of trust” sam is a funny dude
I'm sure someone's mentioned this already, but a Star Killer movie/series adaptation in the vain of Deadpool would be some absolutely intrepid shit!
I hope Starkiller can make a return through the Jedi series, I'd love for Cal and Starkiller to duke it out as the current gaming powerhouses of the franchise. I know the character was considered for Rebels season 3, and I'm glad that they didn't go that route as Starkiller is a game character that should be quite literally unleashed.
Sam as Starkiller is a necessity. Some way, some how he needs to brought back.
Galen Marek (Starkiller) is too cool for them not to do anything with
Hope we do get that
The person that did the voice be on the tv show? Wish they’d done that with ahsoka.
If you haven't yet, Sam Witwer streams on twitch every so often. (:
Good luck on your future prodections! Great actor and voice actor woth so such knowledge.
I don’t think they’ll never make Starkiller canon, unfortunately, but give this guy a role.
Oh this is cool to watch 🫶 a love for your voice is beyond amazing
As a HUGE fan of Starkiller & The Force Unleashed, we absolutely want a live action portrayal of Darth Vader's apprentice!!!
I've been saying for years, Galan story in starwars needs to be a movie
Can we PLEASE get a forces unleashed remastered!!!?!?!?!!!
Sam not only needs to be immediately hired for a live action role, he needs to be immediately hired to upper management within Star Wars.
I would love for him to get a chance to write/direct some Starwars.
Live action force unleashed I’m in , this needs to happen , think he deserves a live action , would be the best choice I’m sure Aden would be up for it
I remember the first time I saw a commercial for the game, I thought, “Is that Doomsday from Smallville?!”
Him & this character is so f*cking iconic!!! 🏆
We need a movie with Starkiller in it. He doesn't need to be ridiculously powerfull like in the games. He just need to be badass like Anakin. Powerful by the movies standard.
When he says that force unleashed was the first to use likeness... That's not true, Onimusha with Takeshi Kaneshiro was the first, followed by many 007 games that used Pierce Brosnan as well as Jet Li in Rise To Honor, tho technically, you could say as far back as Goldeneye would technically be the first to use likeness with the entire cast being incorporated in the game.
Those games used likeness but they were just 3d models made from pictures. What Force Unleashed did was 3d head scans and motion captures by the voice actors. Characters like Kota and Maris Brood's actors were in full makeup with fake scars and makeup for their head scans. For that, Force Unleashed was the first.
He is already Maul voice in Kenobi Season 2 likely. But I think Starkiller could also work in live-action in Kenobi Season 2, he gets too powerful leading Darth Sidious to cancel the Inquisitors program and tighten leash on Darth Vader. But they would have to rework the age. He could also be the Son in Ahsoka Season 2
The other possibility is obviously Starkiller being the antagonist in Jedi Fallen Order Survivor 3, or a reboot of The Force Unleashed videogame series. The first game could receive a reboot with a new engine and a slightly modified plot just to ground it more, and make it canon.
This is a good interview. I hope starkiller gets a live action show.
It is CRIMINAL, that they haven’t done a live action starkiller ANYTHING with Sam. After all that man’s contributions to Star Wars and Lucasfilm as a whole it baffles me that it’s never been done. Whoever is in charge needs to get their heads out of their asses and make it happen.
Yes Id love it if they made a little mini series that brought in Darth Vaders secret apprentice as canon.
Then it fits into dave filonis little story arc revolvong around the mortis gods, Anakin is the Father, Ahsoka is the Daughter and Galen would be the Son.
But what id also like is in the same way Ahsoka is fully good having been forged in war time and is somewhat fearful.
Id like Galen who would be the dark side equivalent to ashsoka to not be irredeemablely, savagely evil like the Mortis Son was. Galen would be more like the Darkside of the force at Balance.
Ans in that way Anakin had unknowingly through force of Habit brought balance to the force.
And then hopefully this final story arc will involve abeloth, wouldnt it just be the best thing ever if Ahsoka and Galen had to join forces, the full scope of the force, dark and light in balance defending the galaxy.
