10 Star Wars Deaths That Should NEVER Have Happened

Thankfully, the baddest bounty hunter in the galaxy not named Boba Fett can still be found popping up in new Star Wars projects in the wake of his unexpected death in The Book of Boba Fett.

But even with Cad Bane being confirmed to return in The Bad Batch's third season, set just after the Clone Wars, many are still upset over the fact this blue-skinned sharpshooter's life was seemingly ended not long after his live-action debut.

Sure, it was still awesome watching Fett clash with his old mentor during that aforementioned Disney+ series' finale. However, if this death is actually final, then Boba's stabbing of the Duros cowboy has robbed fans of a number of equally compelling showdowns.

Just imagine watching Bane exchange blaster fire with Din Djarin, clash with Ahsoka Tano once again, or possibly even share the screen with fellow blue-skinned villain Grand Admiral Thrawn in live-action during the New Republic timeline.

Hopefully then, like many other apparently "dead" Star Wars personalities over the years, this isn't actually the end for the beloved menace. Because if it is, the coolest gunslinger out there being taken out this early into his live-action run would be seriously anticlimactic.
