He was ntroduced in the 1991 Timothy Zahn novel Heir to the Empire, being Commander of the Galactic Empires remaining forces after the defeat if Palpatine at the hands of his former Apprentice Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader), where he faced off the Skywalker twins, Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa Solo. He is seemingly resurrected in the Hand of Thrawn duology (1997–98), and his backstory is explored in various other novels, short stories, comics, and video games in the Star Wars expanded universe. Due to his popularity in the non-canon legends, he was introduced in the new Star Wars Canon as the main antagonist of the third and fourth and final seasons of *Star Wars Rebels* television series.

In the Legends material, Thrawn was voiced by Tris King in *TIE Fighter* and Robin Atkin Downes in *Empire at War: Forces of Corruption* (who also voiced Cham Syndulla in the *Clone Wars* and *Rebels* television series). In canon, he was voiced by Lars Mikkelsen. In both Canon and Legends continuity, he is voiced by Marc Thompson in the audiobook versions of both the Legends and Canon *Thrawn* trilogies.
