Filoni is now reflecting about Rebels, and how he likes using the character of Ahsoka to explore the "odd ends of the galaxy" such as the World Between Worlds, and the "fringe" of Star Wars not explored in the movies.

Darth Maul was killed off in his first appearance in Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace. However, Maul’s popularity eventually led to his return in the Star Wars animated series The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels.

At Star Wars Celebration Japan, it was just announced that a brand new animated series is on the way – and it will be all about Darth Maul. The news was unveiled as part of a panel celebrating 20 years of Lucasfilm Animation.
