Mara Jade in live action has been a dream of mine for decades…Exactly. I think it's not fair to the character or canon where they said they grow as a Togruta ages. There's an easy fix.
I really hope somehow they bring Mara Jade and Talon Karrde back somehow. Mara can obviously still be an Imperial agent who switches sides, or not. And Karrde was just too cool a character, IMO, to not bring back.
