So let me rephrase, in the movies they aren't developed enough to warrant GLs.

To be fair, we have a whole bunch of factions that are not movie based: 501st, Bad batch, Imperial Remnant, Mandalorians, Nightsisters, Old republic, Phoenix, Sith Empire. You could add Ewoks, Geonosians, Jawas and Tusken to the mix, because I have no idea where most of those named characters come from, even if their names might be in the script.

So imo, as long as a character is fully developed in a popular Star Wars show like Clone Wars, it's on the table.

I do agree that for the moment, GLs are only from movies. Let's give it another year and another Mando season to see if there is a pattern there ;)

Yeah I know about other characters. But GLs so far, like you said, were from the movies. I can see a popular TV show character. A book? Not so much.

And to be honest even with TCW I just don't see GG or Dooku as GLs, but if they go in that direction I am cool with that.

And so far, GL’s followed a faction pairing pattern that Vader would break. Dooku is the Head of State of the entire Separatists, he’s one 20 fallen Jedi Masters ever, a Sith Lord, and a major antagonist in the Clone Wars show and 2 of the 3 prequel movies. There’s books, comics and other material that also feature him. Hayden Vader is an extremely tiny stepping stone to Anakin becoming Vader, and he doesn’t go all in on the Sith ideology until he’s chopped down and put in the suit.

Grievous was Supreme Commander of the droid army, a master duelist and Jedi slayer, and he became the de facto Head of State after Dooku’s death. A major plot point of Revenge of the Sith revolves around killing Grievous to end the Clone Wars.
