Cobb Vanth was likable and well-acted, and I liked how they covered his backstory in broad strokes. Is he the first canon EU character to make the jump to live action? Because it sets a good precedent for more to come.

Saw Garrera in Rogue One was originally introduced in the Clone Wars series. Though I suspect it was a rewrite (or simply a name change) as they’re fairly different characters apart from the broad strokes.

Cobb Vanth is apparently a bit different than his novel counterpart as well. But it’s fun regardless to see this interconnectivity between live-action and other media while they at the same time allow creative freedom by not following canon slavishly.
