Rupert Friend has seemingly teased that the Grand Inquisitor could have survived in Obi-Wan Kenobi. Spoilers for the show ahead!
The sinister character was apparently killed off in episode 2, when Reva impaled him with a lightsaber – which caused quite the stir, because the Grand Inquisitor is alive and well in the animated series Star Wars Rebels, which is set after Obi-Wan Kenobi on the Star Wars timeline.
Friend appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live (opens in new tab), and when Kimmel mentioned that the Grand Inquisitor was stabbed through the stomach, the actor replied “one of them.” That might seem confusing, but the Grand Inquisitor belongs to the Pa’un species, who have two stomachs. It seems, then, that the character’s injury might just be survivable after all.
“As you know, we would never break canon,” Obi-Wan Kenobi writer Joby Harold previously said of the moment. “So that’s all I’ll say. Canon is everything.”
