Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - 10 Details The Teaser Secretly Revealed
4. The Inquisitors - Who Are They?
EA
The Inquisitors are an elite band of Jedi-hunters trained in the ways of the force by the Emperor and Darth Vader, and some are even former Jedi. They were first introduced in Star Wars Rebels and have become a prominent part of the expanded canon in the years since, featuring in a plethora of books, comics and now video games.
The Inquisitorius were rumoured to be villains a few months before Fallen Order's official reveal, and they're not to be trifled with. They are made up of various 'Brothers' and 'Sisters', and often wield double-pronged lightsabers on a rotational hilt, serving under the command of Lord Vader.
Their most senior member is the Grand Inquisitor, who served as a guard at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant before he turned to the dark side. They tormented the crew of the Ghost during the first season of Star Wars Rebels and are currently featuring in Marvel's ongoing Darth Vader comic, which is where Respawn appear to be taking most of their inspiration from.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
