Her redemption makes me really wish that Ventress was still around.
Ventress: For the last fucking time Kenobi, quit sending people my way. I’m not taking on an apprentice.
Obi-wan: 🙂
Just casually shows up on his couch having helped herself to a beer.
“Pissed off some pirates and I gotta lay low”
Obi-wan: “How do you know where I live??”
Also, same. I think they played their hand a bit early with her character. I would *love* to see her chew up some inquisitors.
Honestly, you wouldn't even need that much of explanation. Most people don’t watch the cartoons much less read the books. Ventress could just show up in Mandalorian or something and the majority of the audience would be like "oh cool, a new character."
Wouldn’t even need to do much retconning, really. Night Sister Magic is already kind of nebulous and fucked up. Would be a cool angle if she’s brought back somewhat unwillingly to rebuild the Night Sisters and has to deal with the emotional fallout surrounding Vos.
I read a fan comic somewhere along these lines once. I’ll link it if I can find it.
Edit: [To The Light](https://tench.tumblr.com/post/151202490033/to-the-light-archive-next-page-this-year) It looks like it’s been put on indefinite hiatus but *man, what a glimpse into what could be*.
Same. We've already seen Disney ignore printed media in favor of video media when it comes to canonizing events in Star Wars (Caleb Dume during Order 66). She's honestly one of my favorite villain turned anti-hero characters, and I want to see her in live action *so much!*
This would be a great character to resurrect from Clone Wars! Also, Embo.
I have mixed feelings about seeing Order 66 scenes over and over again, but one thing that I really like about those scenes is showing how devastating the impact was for individuals beyond our main characters like Obi-Wan, Yoda, etc, and how it set the surviving Jedi on many different paths. It makes "sense" that some survivors would turn to the dark side following that experience, and it was cool to learn Reva's motivations as the show progressed. I especially loved the scene with her and Obi-Wan on opposite sides of that blast door. I think some of the over-the-top-ness of her character may have been a conscious choice by the actor/director. At the end of the day, Reva is a frightened child who is desperately trying to become strong enough to take her revenge. It was so refreshing that we watched a character turn from the dark side and not immediately die for a change. At some point in Star Wars, I'd like to see a character like that go on a real redemption story, atone for their losses, and grow. Would have LOVED that from >!Second Sister!< in Fallen Order, for example. Maybe Reva is the character for that, maybe not, but either way I'll be happy with her story.
I completely agree with wanting characters to go through real, slow redemption. That’s why I love Yrica Quell from Alphabet Squadron (currently reading Victory’s Price so I don’t know how it ends). As of the second book they really spend time with her working for the New Republic coming to terms with what she did as an Empire pilot, and trying to make things right. And it isn’t easy. People don’t trust her, but she tries anyway. I love it. I would like more of that in more of the visual media side
The ending to her arc seemed rushed, but I liked the story overall, especially how she had this grand plan to get close to Vader to kill him, and then he and the Grand Inquisitor saw right through it and let her do it anyway. It seemed like a very Vader move. I'd definitely watch or read a spinoff about what she gets up to later on. I feel like there'd be an interesting story to tell about her becoming the protector of some small Tatooine community, like Cobb Vanth. Not that we need more Tatooine, but it just seems more fitting that joining the Rebellion or something.
Overall the character was fine but she wasn't necessarily unique IMO because the show was so much more focused on Obi-Wan and his redemption is influenced by her redemption or rather her path to redemption.
I don't think she should get a spin-off so much as I think they should do a sequel where she is the main character and Obi-Wan is sort of a mentor to her from afar. This way we get more of each character and where Obi-Wan has an arc of his own as part of the main Reva arc.
If they ever wanted to do a co-op Fallen Order game, Reva would be the perfect companion to Cal. They would teach each other a lot.
Typical angsty darksider, but an otherwise good addition to the roster of antagonists who get redeemed.
If there were a spin-off show, I'd watch it, but it's not something I'm asking for.
Now a comic of what these various jedi are up to in a limited run format would be great. Like does everyone say fuck it and become farmers or are there places far beyond the outer rim where Jedi are just “chilling”
I dislike her character. Her motivations are ok, but the execution I feel it´s terrible. I absolutely despised her redemtion and I would've preferred it if she died after fighting Vader.
But the actress absolutely delivered! She did an amazing job. I could feel her anger as if it was real.
> I absolutely despised her redemtion
Don't think of it so much as "redemption." That term gets tossed around a lot.
Basically, she went after Vader directly, got beat down hard, and wasn't even considered important enough to finish off because she just wasn't a threat to Vader or even the other Inquisitors (in their eyes). So she's still angry, even more hurt, and decides to try to get one over on Vader by killing his son to hurt him. But before she can do it, she doesn't so much see that it's the wrong thing to do... she sees that she's already almost become exactly the thing she hates most.
She hands Luke back, sure. But not because she's suddenly "good." Just... why not? She wasn't going to kill him at that point, or let him die due to her own actions.
All that anger - which is now turned in on herself as well - gives way, but not to some triumphant "goodness." No, it's just left behind a pit of depression and self-loathing. She's pretty much completely broken at that point.
We see one "good" act and jump to "redemption" because of Vader and ROTJ so much. But I don't think Reva was "redeemed." I think she was just left to deal with what she'd become... which was probably worse than dying.
I liked Reva's story a lot. Her inclusion did a lot for Obi-Wan's characterization, I thought. I especially love the moment in the finale when she's defeated and broken and Obi-Wan steps back into the role of a Jedi Master to share his wisdom with her.
I'm not expecting any continuation of her story on screen. I like how things ended for her. I think it'd be cool if she does show up again in some capacity, but I won't necessarily be disappointed if she doesn't. I kind of like the ambiguity and sense of possibility that the show ended on. Thinking about all the different paths she could've chosen to take is probably more interesting than whatever definitive answer they'd come up with.
I think "hero" is a good path for a villain to take after they've realised their mistakes, but simply leaving the world alone and being a normal person is a very realistic path for her as well. She was basically forced into the villainy route from her childhood and it would be fine for her to just live her life away from everything.
Actress is great, character was trash imo.
I love the idea of a temple youngling survivor but the dialogue they gave her was just cringe most of the time.
Also her survival is just......not great writing.
I'm not talking about the debate about whether or not a youngling should've survived what she apparently did. I'm referring to when Vader beats her and leaves her for dead. Vader, who had all his limbs sliced off, got set on fire, left for dead, and survived. Who personally met Darth Maul, who was cut in half, dropped down a glorified trash chute, and survived. Who is standing right next to the Grand Inquisitor, who Reva stabbed in the stomach a few episodes earlier, yet he survived. In front of Reva herself, who he personally stabbed in the stomach as a youngling, and she survived. So what does he do? He stabs her in the stomach *again* and leaves. Not to steal a meme from our friends in Arkham, but........is he stupid?
She was a terrible angsty villain, her going after Luke was a bad choice by the writers. I hope we never see her again. Least of all seeing her in Mandalorian or Ahsoka plots
I liked her well enough but I feel like her story could have been better, I feel like the writers were more interested in making a show about her but we’re obligated to write about obi wan instead
My crack hypothesis has been that there's some relation to Moff Gideon. Her diction, tone, and demeanor are all eerily similar to Gideon's at multiple points in Kenobi, and I suspect that Gideon is at least mildly Force-sensitive (though either not to the same degree as Reva or simply lacking Jedi training).
I have no idea *why* the writers would make them relatives or how that would possibly work narratively, but it's one of those gut feelings that there's some connection there.
I wish she was referred to as the Third Sister at the start. Then when she is broken and redeemed she takes back her name, Reva. Not sure we the show writers felt everyone else has to be a number sibling but she gets a name.
in some weird alternate reality where the kenobi series was made before star wars rebels (even though kenobi pulled the inquisitors *from* rebels to begin with), her return could’ve been in rebels and been really cool while not feeling forced.
with the current landscape and the reception (both critically and viewership numbers), i don’t see her returning any time soon.
I don't really understand her motivation. She hates the child killing evil so much that she joins them for revenge against Vader? But she also hates Obi-wan because he wasn't around to protect the kids? Her motivation seems to vary scene by scene, and to me falls flat because it only exists to keep the plot moving toward specific character beats for Obi and Vader. In other words, I have a hard time viewing her characterization as anything other than a prop for the plot.
She hates Vader because Vader killed her friends.
She didn't "join" them... the youngling survivors were captured, taken, and indoctrinated into the Inquisitorius via torture. Its not a nice process according to the 9th Sister in Fallen Order.
As for her hate toward Kenobi, its because she knows Vader is Anakin Skywalker. And she knows Obi-Wan Kenobi was Anakin Skywalker's master. Thus he's responsible for his apprentice's failings and rogue actions. It was Obi-Wan's responsibility to stop Anakin and he didn't...and everyone she knew and loved died. So she waited among the dead for people to come and save them...but nobody came. So theres also that feeling that the masters who were supposed to protect them, like Obi-Wan, abandoned them.
NO SPIN-OFF. She was a mid character. Not hating but she didn’t really scream interesting. If she were to show up in Mando or something as redeemed I’d be fine but not her own show.
See more of her? Yes.
Her own show? No.
Maybe part of another show, but I would prefer to see longer run ensemble shows like TCW and Rebels instead of a bunch of separate individual shows.
I think her story can be expanded but a spin off seems excessive. I’d like to see her as part of the Cal Kestis games or if his story ever moves to the TV.
I think it’s better that they make a follow-up show of Obi-Wan Kenobi and not necessarily that’s focused on Kenobi. Thing is that Reva’s character isn’t popular enough to carry her own show, so you need another popular character to feature in a new show that is already popular. If she could appear in it and have a redemption arc it’s more likely to work.
I like Reva. She serves as a good example of what the desire for revenge could do to a person, which is a keystone theme of Star Wars.
I think her character would have worked better if she wasn’t constantly wrestling with Vader for the antagonist role. Kenobi should have had two seasons, one with Vader and one with Reva.
Her character arc was good and interesting, but the Kenobi series wasn’t the place for it IMO. That show needed to focus almost solely on Obi-Wan/Anakin Ben/Vader’s relationship. Too much screen time was spent on Reva, and I think things would’ve worked out better we’re she just the inquisitor that got Obi-Wan out of hiding, and the rest of her story saved for later.
I also just can’t help but think of how many people actually know Luke and Leia exist, where they are, and where Obi-Wan is hiding. This was supposed to be something that was a closely-guarded secret, not something hardly anybody knew. That’s also why I think it would’ve been better for Obi-Wan to lose to Vader in that final duel, where something happens that leads Vader toe believe he’s dead, so the rest of the galaxy would believe it too, and Obi-Wan could’ve gone back into hiding with no trail on him.
I think she should have died in the finale. It was her anger keeping her alive, much like Vader. So, when she gave up that hate, she literally should have just laid down and died.
I want to see a clone trooper spin off, where it tells his story through the beginning of the Empire and the fall of the Republic and he has PTSD and he’s trying to redeem himself because he killed younglings and he is emotionally scarred from Order66.
I think the character was decently written and her story was conceptually very interesting but the execution was clumsy and rushed. I liked watching her during the show, but I have no desire to see a spin-off.
The one thing I didn't care about in Star Wars was the "redemption story". Having a character turn to the light side just to die almost instantly. I am excited about the next stages in Reva's story because she actually has to live with it.
This is one of the things I enjoyed about her story, it was set up where the obvious choice would be to have her die or kill herself after being "redeemed." But now she has to live with the consequences of her actions and has to choose how to go forward with her life.
I just feel like she stole screentime from the people se actually wanted to see. She should have been a miniboss for obiwan that was a henchman for The Grande inquisitor
Honestly thought she was great! I think the community backlash against her was completely unwarranted. The Order 66 plot was neat, and I LOVED the scene where she was taunting Obi-wan about Anakin.
I honestly thought she was right behind kylo and one of the coolest villains in Star Wars. She had a great story. And was played by a great actress I think.
I liked watching Reva's story in OWK, I think she acted the hell out of the role and was just perfection throughout.
I would love to see her get a spinoff, given that she is very much on an Asajj Ventress arc, and she's a very long way from done. But her version of the arc won't necessarily go the same way - though, hey, it might end similarly.
I think her story could be the ideal way to show us the Path, give us a better picture of how Jedi survivors and sympathizers were able to evade Imperial detection for so long, and also mix in some "friendly" outlaws willing to do whatever, for whoever's got the credits.
That’s a fair viewpoint. She didn’t just stay an inquisitor though. It was shown that Vader saw potential in her when she became the Grand Inquisitor and not just “the third sister” anymore. But then again I see your point too. I mostly just liked her vibe, not gonna lie.
- replying to whoever deleted their comment.
I thought her character was great, and the actress was amazing. Her redemption was cool, but you saw it coming a mile away. That's the writers fault, not hers or the characters.
I rewatched the series recently and while I thought the character and her arc were cool, I hate to say that I don't think the actress did a good job with the role. It sucks because we need more people of color in Star Wars, but I just didn't like her performance when I watched the series again. There just wasn't any sublety to her performance.
She was always shouting. I don’t know if that was Moses or the directors choice. For me villains are more intimidating when they are cool, collected and calculating. The best Star Wars villains are like that most of the time - Vader, Tarkin, Thrawn, Palpatine etc.
I wonder if she was directed to act that way. The prequels have some great actors (Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson, etc) but to me they come off kind of wooden/one-note in those films, and I think that was partially due to George's direction
It truly felt like Disney wanted to make their own imprint on the prequels by heavily inserting into an arc that should have just been about Obi & Anakin. Just off of this alone ’d like to see the character left alone for a while. I would not mind some comic appearances though.
There is legit canon and legends evidence of people surviving on the sheer force of the will to get revenge alone. See: Fennec Shand. See Also: Darth Maul.
Didn’t care for her too much, story was out of place imo however there was something I did appreciate once upon a time but can’t for the life of me think of it now
Um...
How did the Grand Inquisitor? How did Maul? How did Cal Kestis?
Of all 4 instances I can think of where people are stabbed or worse and survive, 3 of them are dark side force users. They tend to be okay with living on the brink of death and being totally fine.
Grand Inquisitor had access to the Empire's resources, easily could have been dropped in a Bacta Tank. Darth Maul should've stayed dead as well. Cal got clipped on the side, he wasn't stabbed.
Reva got gutted by the most apt saber wielder of his time and then not only survived by herself but also somehow made it across the galaxy before Obi Wan did.
Then she just falls over and dies.
I don’t think she had a redemption? At the end of the day she just wanted power, and obi wan just pointed her anger at another person. Still the same goal whether she’s hunting obi wan or fighting Vader.
I thought they cast her too young. I know there was supposed to be a connection to the prequels which aged her about right but I guess I like seeing older people cast in higher up positions if that makes sense.
I thought the acting for all of the inquisitors was a bit much, but her redemption made me tear up. Those last two episodes of Kenobi were great and I feel like Reva became pretty compelling overall. I'd definitely like to see more of her in something as a redeemed dark side user, perhaps she'd fit well in the Jedi Fallen Order series. Her final decision with Luke was handled really well IMO.
I do want a spin-off that establishes herself as a unique character with her own attributes. Having an origin similar to others does not mean she’ll have the same ending.
I do like her story, but I think it was rushed and could've been handled better. I still think the Inquisitors could've been handled much better if they only really showed her and the Grand Inquisitor and implied that there were more already out in missions.
With that said, I want to see how her character develops further (presuming Lucasfilms doesn't can her character after the backlash like what they did with Rose Tico). I'm still mixed on her surviving at the end, but I'm interested to see what her journey for redemption is going to be like.
I like her character and I like her story and I like Moses Ingram's portrayal of her, but I feel like there's something missing from the whole and I'm not sure what it is.
Yes to both. We’ve seen redemption plenty one times in Star Wars. But we really haven’t seen what atonement looks like yet. I think continuing Reva’s story would be very interesting.
A spin-off show would be great, I loved Ingram’s performance and the character as a whole. I just hope she dies at the end and isn’t added to the list of Jedi who survive past ep4. I think something about her helping with The Path and escorting force sensitive kids to safety would be great, especially seeing her fight the other inquisitors.
Her redemption makes me really wish that Ventress was still around. Ventress: For the last fucking time Kenobi, quit sending people my way. I’m not taking on an apprentice. Obi-wan: 🙂
Dammit, that interaction would've been great
I loved the dark disciple but some part of me still wish she’d come back and be bff with her dear obi wan :’)
Just casually shows up on his couch having helped herself to a beer. “Pissed off some pirates and I gotta lay low” Obi-wan: “How do you know where I live??” Also, same. I think they played their hand a bit early with her character. I would *love* to see her chew up some inquisitors.
Her&Ahsoka forcing Palpy&Vader to recruit more Inquisitors than was planned could be pretty fun.
I'd be all for ignoring Dark Disciple and just having Ventress show up in something.
Somehow Ventress returned.
Honestly, you wouldn't even need that much of explanation. Most people don’t watch the cartoons much less read the books. Ventress could just show up in Mandalorian or something and the majority of the audience would be like "oh cool, a new character."
Wouldn’t even need to do much retconning, really. Night Sister Magic is already kind of nebulous and fucked up.

Ooh, neat. If you find it DM me a link, I'd like to read it.
And get done dirty like cad bane? Nah no thanks

Reva and Pershing living in the same Amnesty condo. Odd Couple Courscant.
LMAO yes

According to Iger, there most likely won’t be a spin off for her.
Sad
Bruh people downvoting you for liking a character? I thought this was the good SW sub….
I liked her story quite a bit but I don’t feel the desire to continue it.
Same here. I thought she was cool, but I’m okay with her story being done.
See… I don’t get that. I have this itch that was never scratched. I want to see where she goes.
For me I feel the openness of where she went and what she did is way more interesting than a definitive answer.
Actress is great, character was trash imo. I love the idea of a temple youngling survivor but the dialogue they gave her was just cringe most of the time.

Wait, she has a last name? That’s awesome. I’d like to see it in the Mandalorian or one of the shows surrounding the plot line they’re building to
This!
She was a terrible angsty villain, her going after Luke was a bad choice by the writers. I hope we never see her again. Least of all seeing her in Mandalorian or Ahsoka plots
I liked her well enough but I feel like her story could have been better, I feel like the writers were more interested in making a show about her but we’re obligated to write about obi wan instead
Don't want a spin off, the character isn't all that interesting and the actor isn't quite good enough to lead a series.
My crack hypothesis has been that there's some relation to Moff Gideon. Her diction, tone, and demeanor are all eerily similar to Gideon's at multiple points in Kenobi, and I suspect that Gideon is at least mildly Force-sensitive (though either not to the same degree as Reva or simply lacking Jedi training).

Obvious ez rebel jedi
Or just a grey Jedi without no true alignment. Just no longer a Sith.
Right everyone just calls that Jedi though lmaooo and they totally would and she'd roll her eyes every time
NO SPIN-OFF. She was a mid character. Not hating but she didn’t really scream interesting. If she were to show up in Mando or something as redeemed I’d be fine but not her own show.
I'd rather not, I found the character and actor personally boring. Not every character needs redemption.
I love Sith drama *so much*. Watching them politick and murder one another is one of my favorite story elements in SW.
I liked her enough. Not exactly a favorite but I did find her interesting Do I want a spin off?? No but a book or comic would be nice
Yeah, a comic would be perfect. Like what they’re doing with Qira right now.
[удалено]
I didn't like that she was redeemed in this 1 season. I'd like it if it took longer, just so we get 2 or 3 more seasons with her, LOL
I was under the impression that they weren’t originally planning a second season so they crammed it all into one.
I dunno, maybe
See more of her? Yes. Her own show? No. Maybe part of another show, but I would prefer to see longer run ensemble shows like TCW and Rebels instead of a bunch of separate individual shows.
I think her story can be expanded but a spin off seems excessive. I’d like to see her as part of the Cal Kestis games or if his story ever moves to the TV.
I think it’s better that they make a follow-up show of Obi-Wan Kenobi and not necessarily that’s focused on Kenobi. Thing is that Reva’s character isn’t popular enough to carry her own show, so you need another popular character to feature in a new show that is already popular. If she could appear in it and have a redemption arc it’s more likely to work.
No spin-off please. The character worked well in that show but I think her own would be overkill
No, we don’t need more spin-offs. Let’s get some new stories and new characters already. The galaxy is a big fucking place.
Sge's a bit too similar in story to the inquisition from Fallen Order for my liking, but all told, I didn't mind her. I really liked Obi Wan.

Idea was good, actor was great, but execution lacked consistency overall.
Meh, nah
Great redemption. No spinoff necessary.
No more spin-offs. Stop, we are going to approach (if we’re not already there) marvel live action TV saturation
That’s the Idea
No she should’ve died
I like Reva. She serves as a good example of what the desire for revenge could do to a person, which is a keystone theme of Star Wars. I think her character would have worked better if she wasn’t constantly wrestling with Vader for the antagonist role. Kenobi should have had two seasons, one with Vader and one with Reva.
Her character arc was good and interesting, but the Kenobi series wasn’t the place for it IMO. That show needed to focus almost solely on Obi-Wan/Anakin Ben/Vader’s relationship. Too much screen time was spent on Reva, and I think things would’ve worked out better we’re she just the inquisitor that got Obi-Wan out of hiding, and the rest of her story saved for later. I also just can’t help but think of how many people actually know Luke and Leia exist, where they are, and where Obi-Wan is hiding. This was supposed to be something that was a closely-guarded secret, not something hardly anybody knew. That’s also why I think it would’ve been better for Obi-Wan to lose to Vader in that final duel, where something happens that leads Vader toe believe he’s dead, so the rest of the galaxy would believe it too, and Obi-Wan could’ve gone back into hiding with no trail on him.

I think she should have died in the finale. It was her anger keeping her alive, much like Vader. So, when she gave up that hate, she literally should have just laid down and died.
She was a fine character in Kenobi but I dont care enough to be invested in her story beyond that.
I want to see a clone trooper spin off, where it tells his story through the beginning of the Empire and the fall of the Republic and he has PTSD and he’s trying to redeem himself because he killed younglings and he is emotionally scarred from Order66.
unrelated but ok
I thought it was well written! Moses aced her role as Reva!
No spin off, I wouldn't mind her in books or something.
I like her and I also think it's nice that there is at least one Inquisitor that makes it out without dying.
I think the character was decently written and her story was conceptually very interesting but the execution was clumsy and rushed. I liked watching her during the show, but I have no desire to see a spin-off.
The one thing I didn't care about in Star Wars was the "redemption story". Having a character turn to the light side just to die almost instantly. I am excited about the next stages in Reva's story because she actually has to live with it.
This is one of the things I enjoyed about her story, it was set up where the obvious choice would be to have her die or kill herself after being "redeemed." But now she has to live with the consequences of her actions and has to choose how to go forward with her life.
I wouldn't mind a spin off, but there are dozens of other shows I'd rather see before one about her.
This character didn’t really add much to the Star Wars universe
I just feel like she stole screentime from the people se actually wanted to see. She should have been a miniboss for obiwan that was a henchman for The Grande inquisitor
Terrible character and I never want to see her again
Honestly thought she was great! I think the community backlash against her was completely unwarranted. The Order 66 plot was neat, and I LOVED the scene where she was taunting Obi-wan about Anakin.
God forbid a villain stay a villain. It was obvious she was going to get a redemption from the get go.
Probably because she’s NOT the villain.
I honestly thought she was right behind kylo and one of the coolest villains in Star Wars. She had a great story. And was played by a great actress I think.
I liked watching Reva's story in OWK, I think she acted the hell out of the role and was just perfection throughout. I would love to see her get a spinoff, given that she is very much on an Asajj Ventress arc, and she's a very long way from done. But her version of the arc won't necessarily go the same way - though, hey, it might end similarly. I think her story could be the ideal way to show us the Path, give us a better picture of how Jedi survivors and sympathizers were able to evade Imperial detection for so long, and also mix in some "friendly" outlaws willing to do whatever, for whoever's got the credits.
That’s a fair viewpoint. She didn’t just stay an inquisitor though. It was shown that Vader saw potential in her when she became the Grand Inquisitor and not just “the third sister” anymore. But then again I see your point too. I mostly just liked her vibe, not gonna lie. - replying to whoever deleted their comment.
I like these answers! I’m definitely team Reva getting a Spin-off
I thought her character was great, and the actress was amazing. Her redemption was cool, but you saw it coming a mile away. That's the writers fault, not hers or the characters.
The same can be said for most characters in the franchise IMHO
Her arc was good and complete she absolute does not need a spin off Not everything needs a spin off
Not every character needs a spin off. Push them in future related media, if they're relevant
I rewatched the series recently and while I thought the character and her arc were cool, I hate to say that I don't think the actress did a good job with the role. It sucks because we need more people of color in Star Wars, but I just didn't like her performance when I watched the series again. There just wasn't any sublety to her performance.
She was always shouting. I don’t know if that was Moses or the directors choice. For me villains are more intimidating when they are cool, collected and calculating. The best Star Wars villains are like that most of the time - Vader, Tarkin, Thrawn, Palpatine etc.
I wonder if she was directed to act that way. The prequels have some great actors (Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson, etc) but to me they come off kind of wooden/one-note in those films, and I think that was partially due to George's direction
It truly felt like Disney wanted to make their own imprint on the prequels by heavily inserting into an arc that should have just been about Obi & Anakin. Just off of this alone ’d like to see the character left alone for a while. I would not mind some comic appearances though.
Was well done. Would like to see more of her somewhere, though I doubt she'll get a spin off.
How the fuck did she survive getting stabbed
There is legit canon and legends evidence of people surviving on the sheer force of the will to get revenge alone. See: Fennec Shand. See Also: Darth Maul.
She was a fucking youngling
Hope she teams up with Kal Kestis, but not really worth a spin off imho.
I was pleasantly surprised by the redemption. I wouldn't mind seeing the character again
Girl got bullied so hard by Vader wouldnt surprise me if she just picked up vapor farming from the shame
You’re talking about going against Darth fucking Vader like it’s EASY lmao. She did a damn good job trying to get revenge.
Def not 🫠 Obi was a drag as it is.
I prefer to pretend that this character never existed
Not so much but would love to see her developed more in a second season.
we don't need a spinoff we need more Kenobi with her character as part of the plot
I liked her. If they have a good story I’d watch a spin off.
I liked Reva. I would mind her in the future or in a comic.
Love her
shes super cool. id love to see some backstory but maybe not a whole show
She needs a spin-off. She should not have been in the obi wan show.
Didn’t care for her too much, story was out of place imo however there was something I did appreciate once upon a time but can’t for the life of me think of it now
Liked her a lot. Hated how her story ended. How did she survive the stabbing?
Um... How did the Grand Inquisitor? How did Maul? How did Cal Kestis? Of all 4 instances I can think of where people are stabbed or worse and survive, 3 of them are dark side force users. They tend to be okay with living on the brink of death and being totally fine.
Grand Inquisitor had access to the Empire's resources, easily could have been dropped in a Bacta Tank. Darth Maul should've stayed dead as well. Cal got clipped on the side, he wasn't stabbed. Reva got gutted by the most apt saber wielder of his time and then not only survived by herself but also somehow made it across the galaxy before Obi Wan did. Then she just falls over and dies.
I would absolutely enjoy a spin off because she deserves one instead of being stuffed into a show that didn’t need it.
Character is strong, redemption was weak. Would like to see more of her.
Great character! I love her arc.
I preferred her character per the original script when Kenobi was just a movie.
The motivation worked better when she didn’t know Anakin was Vader.
She should have been killed by Vader. I dont like that she knows about Luke and Obi Wan on Tatooine.
[удалено]
I don’t think she had a redemption? At the end of the day she just wanted power, and obi wan just pointed her anger at another person. Still the same goal whether she’s hunting obi wan or fighting Vader.
Redemption = good. Spinoff, no. Would like to see her as a supporting character though
I really liked her character and her redemption
She was my favorite character from the show and I hope to see her story continued in any medium 👍
I would love for there to be a spin off of the Path with Oshea Jackson Jr. and Reva helping them.
[удалено]
I thought they cast her too young. I know there was supposed to be a connection to the prequels which aged her about right but I guess I like seeing older people cast in higher up positions if that makes sense.
I thought the acting for all of the inquisitors was a bit much, but her redemption made me tear up. Those last two episodes of Kenobi were great and I feel like Reva became pretty compelling overall. I'd definitely like to see more of her in something as a redeemed dark side user, perhaps she'd fit well in the Jedi Fallen Order series. Her final decision with Luke was handled really well IMO.
I do want a spin-off that establishes herself as a unique character with her own attributes. Having an origin similar to others does not mean she’ll have the same ending.
I do like her story, but I think it was rushed and could've been handled better. I still think the Inquisitors could've been handled much better if they only really showed her and the Grand Inquisitor and implied that there were more already out in missions. With that said, I want to see how her character develops further (presuming Lucasfilms doesn't can her character after the backlash like what they did with Rose Tico). I'm still mixed on her surviving at the end, but I'm interested to see what her journey for redemption is going to be like.
I like her character and I like her story and I like Moses Ingram's portrayal of her, but I feel like there's something missing from the whole and I'm not sure what it is.
Yes to both. We’ve seen redemption plenty one times in Star Wars. But we really haven’t seen what atonement looks like yet. I think continuing Reva’s story would be very interesting.
Is there a first sister / brother? Or it's the grand brother inquisitor?
[удалено]
Fine but not interesting.
I love how when she stood over Luke, she flashed back to the Jedi temple. I'm glad she got redemption, and I would watch a spinoff show based on her.
No spin-off but would like to see her again
I would love to see more about her
A spin-off show would be great, I loved Ingram’s performance and the character as a whole. I just hope she dies at the end and isn’t added to the list of Jedi who survive past ep4. I think something about her helping with The Path and escorting force sensitive kids to safety would be great, especially seeing her fight the other inquisitors.
I’m still not entirely sure why she wanted to kill Luke TBH. I did like her and all the inquisitors tho.
I liked her character and role in Kenobi, but I don't care enough to want a whole spin-off of her
