Liam Neeson would return to 'Star Wars' but only in a movie: 'I'm a snob when it comes to TV'

Liam Neeson's Jedi master Qui-Gon Jinn died in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, but that hasn't stopped fans from hoping over the years that the actor might return to the franchise.

Considering previously-thought dead Star Wars characters have popped up on screens (see Darth Maul in Solo and Boba Fett in The Mandalorian and The Book Of Boba Fett), it's entirely possible for Neeson to wield a lightsaber once again. The actor recently told ComicBook.com that he's open to reprising Qui-Gon Jinn under one condition.
