Hera Syndulla has never appeared in live-action herself, but her presence has been felt there more than once. The character first appeared as one of the heroes of Star Wars Rebels, as the owner and pilot of the Rebel ship known as the Ghost, and while we haven’t seen a lot of her life beyond that series, her presence has been hinted at many times. In Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the Ghost appears during the Battle of Scarif, and an announcement at the rebel base refers to “General Syndulla.” We also know that Hera saw combat at the Battle of Endor, and the Ghost reappears in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker during the Battle of Exegol.
All of this suggests that Hera Syndulla led a rich, eventful life beyond the boundaries of her first animated appearances, which leaves a lot of room for live-action filmmakers to take up her story and run with it. She could appear in a new live-action series, make an appearance in a film, or even become the main character in another Star Wars Story set in the midst of the Galactic Civil War. Whatever the case, Hera deserves to make the jump.
