Moreover, this news marks a significant milestone for the Star Wars franchise. Cameron Monaghan, the actor who portrays the lead character in the video game series, has previously expressed interest in bringing the character to life on the big screen.
However, he has emphasized the importance of the project continuing the story or character in a meaningful way. The transition to live-action should be relatively seamless for Cal Kestis. While the specific details of Cal’s live-action appearance remain unknown, the prospect of seeing him in a Disney+ project is exciting.
It could be a standalone series, a cameo in another show, or even a feature film. Regardless of the format, Cal’s arrival in the live-action realm is sure to delight fans of the Star Wars franchise.
There Are Several Possibilities For Cal Kestis’ Live-Action Debut
The recent report suggesting Cal Kestis’ appearance in a live-action Star Wars project has sparked speculation about which series or film he might be featured in. Moreover, while the exact project remains unclear, several possibilities exist.

Given the timeline of upcoming Star Wars releases, ‘Ahsoka’ appears to be a strong contender. Set shortly after ‘Return of the Jedi’, the series is already introducing another Jedi, Ezra Bridger, from that era, Cal Kestis’ inclusion would fit seamlessly into this storyline.
In addition, it would allow him to interact with familiar characters and explore new adventures. While ‘The Mandalorian’ and ‘Grogu’ are also possibilities, the timeline might not align perfectly with Cal Kestis’ story. However, given the potential for crossovers and connections between different Star Wars projects, it’s not completely off the table.
