Okay, let me just put this out there.


With Disney owning all the Star Wars movies now, they're doing a Marvel kind of plan and making canon films (Episodes VII, VIII, etc.), but also spin-off films, starting with a Han Solo one, which would cover some of his earlier years as well as later.  There's talks of a Boba Fett solo film, a Yoda film, etc....



So, as the title of this thread suggests: why not a Mara Jade film?  The reason I bring it up is, what if it shows Mara during her time under guise of Arica, a slave in Jabba's palace?


But, even failing that...what if someone turns this into a story/roleplay?  Here's my idea.


It could get into her hearing that Han has been sold to Jabba, and knowing that Luke would likely come to save him, she infiltrates the palace, maybe even in a manner not unlike Leia's capture ("Oh no, I've been captured by this horrible beast!  Ugh, stay away from me!" etc.).  She slowly works her way into his trust, to the point that she gets to wander the palace as a "decorated" slave, biding her time until Luke finally arrives - and even showing how Leia's own capture and enslavement affects her plan, right up until the popular "Sail Barge jilting" scene, where Jabba tells Mara to get lost, because he's too busy with his new slave.


Anyone want to try to tackle this story, even if no such film ever gets made?
