Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 - 10 Major Characters Who Could Appear
9. Tarkin
Lucasfilm
Everyone's favourite Grand Moff, it's actually possible that Tarkin could appear in Fallen Order 2, albeit likely in a minor capacity.
Once an officer in the Grand Army of the Republic, Tarkin became a key ally of Chancellor Palpatine and embraced the Empire wholeheartedly, working with Vader on numerous occasions before eventually overseeing the construction of the first Death Star under the direction of Orson Krennic.
The interesting thing here is that Tarkin's rise to Grand Moff status occurs around the same time as the events of the first Fallen Order, with James Luceno's Tarkin novel also taking place in 14 BBY. Of course, Tarkin himself was much more concerned with Rebel activity than any single Jedi, but if the Stinger Mantis crew find themselves operating as a rebel cell in Fallen Order 2, it's possible they could provoke a response from the Moff.
Either that, or Vader wards him off with a patented "Jedi business - go back to your drinks." That could happen too.
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.
