I'm not saying that either could or should happen, just that it's a possibility.
I really liked Darth Maul as a character. He was one of the few things I enjoyed in the first prequel. I was pretty disappointed when he appeared to be killed off. I really stepped away from the Star Wars "universe" after that first film, and I missed a lot of stuff, so I have been casually checking out some story lines. I thought this was hilarious:


For The Phantom Menace, the character was designed by concept designer Iain McCaig, who felt that designing a new Star Wars villain was a daunting task. He recalled George Lucas describing Maul as "a figure from your worst nightmare," so McCaig thought about his worst nightmares and then used those to design an initial look for the character. McCaig described his worst nightmare as a lifeless face pressed against a window in a thunderstorm, a dead yet alive figure who stares at him through the rain. McCaig used that as the first design, adding metal teeth and blood-red ribbons falling on it rather than rain. Lucas apparently felt it was too intense, saying "Okay. Now draw me your second worst nightmare..."
