Cad Bane is one of the most popular characters from the animated series. He is a Duros Bounty Hunter who worked for shady characters like Darth Sidious and Jabba the Hutt on various contracts, and has appeared in both The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch.

Since the death of Jango Fett, Bane is known as one of the greatest Bounty Hunters in the Star Wars universe and has worked with other legendary Bounty Hunters like Aura Sing. Bane specialised in going up against Jedi and fought some of the best, including Obi-Wan Kenobi.

We saw Bane most recently when he was hired to capture Omega, the only female clone of Jango Fett and return her to Kamino. During this battle, Fennec Shand and Clone Force 99 defeated him, leaving his return for revenge inevitable.

Bane is a character that fans are determined to see in live-action. There have been rumours he may make an appearance in The Book of Boba Fett, where he might get his rematch with Shand. If not in The Book of Boba Fett, his first live action outing may be in The Mandalorian Season 3.
