Obviously, it brought up a lot of feelings of nostalgia but it was also very cathartic in a way too, just because this is a character that means so much to me and has really sort of stayed with me over the years.
For those who don’t know, this is also not the final time we’re going to be seeing Hayden reprise Vader; according to The Hollywood Reporter, he will also do so on the upcoming Ahsoka series starring Rosario Dawson. She made her live-action debut on The Mandalorian after being a popular character on Clone Wars.
