I'm hoping for that. He's alive and Clone Wars is a part of this new series, so he will probably be back.

"The Future of The Force" was everything that I've been waiting several episodes for. Loved it, really hoping to see more of Kanan and Ahsoka against the Inquisitors.

One thing I'm curious about is aren't they going to have to kill Kanan and Ahsoka off at some point? If they live then how are they going to explain where they were during episode 4,5 and 6?

That's why Rebels has such a higher ceiling potential than The Clone Wars had. The fates of just about all of the characters were already set in TCW, but pretty much anything can happen to the characters on Rebels.

Considering the size of the universe, a character doesn't need to be dead to not be in stories like these.

~~Amaranthus~~ · 12-31-2015, 02:51 PM

Wait, if Luke is the only jedi in Return of the Jedi. Does that mean Kanan and Ezra are dead?
Mind=blown.

*Mayhem* · 01-01-2016, 05:31 AM

Maybe the final episode of Rebels can end just like Blake's Seven did... now THAT would be something!

~~Amaranthus~~ · 01-03-2016, 06:22 AM

I have only heard a stormtrooper say "What the?" once in the original trilogy.
In this series, however. They say it all the time!

I think that Ezra is safe. Given that it's a kids show, I just don't see them killing a child. Kanan and Ahsoka's fates may already be sealed...

I think that was technically a biker scout too.

I know it was a guy on a bike but I didn't know they had different names.
Don't be a smartass. No-one likes a smartass.

Star Wars Rebels Scoop: Princess Leia Set to Appear on the Disney XD Animated Series

Before Season 2 of Star Wars Rebels began, executive producer Dave Filoni teased that he was bringing another major legacy character from the films to his animated series. We can now reveal that guest star is Princess Leia Organa (who is going by General Organa in the current blockbuster Star Wars: The Force Awakens).

The iconic character—who was introduced in the very first scene of the first Star Wars movie back in 1977 (aka A New Hope)—will be featured in the January 20 episode of the Disney XD series, which is set prior to that film, just as the Galactic Empire is beginning its ruthless oppression. The teenage princess is sent to Lothal—the base planet for the series’ main characters, a group of rebel fighters—on a secret mission to bring ships for the rebel fleet. Unfortunately an Imperial lockdown throws that plan into chaos.

“We thought we had an opportunity to show her learning to be a leader, experimenting with the personality that becomes the stronger more resolute character you see in A New Hope,” Filoni says. “One of the complex challenges of depicting Leia in Rebels is that we have to remind the audience that at this point she is part of the Empire. She doesn’t believe in the Empire, but she is acting the part, almost a double agent.”

This will be Leia's only appearance this season, and it is unknown yet if she will appear again on the series. The voice will not be provided by Carrie Fisher (the live-action actress who created the role), but instead is by Julie Dolan, who also played Leia in the video game Star Wars: Uprising.

Leia joins several other legacy characters who have already appeared on the show, including Darth Vader, C-3PO, R2-D2, Yoda and Lando Calrissian from the films and Ahsoka Tano from the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

"I get asked by fans about certain characters all the time," Filoni told us back in September. "We've been pretty good at bringing them back, not just because people want them, but because we have an important story to tell with them, and how things cross over."

The episode, “A Princess in Lothal,” airs Wednesday, January 20 at 9/8c (Rebels’ new timeslot) on Disney XD.

Yeah it is. I was hoping we'd get more from Maul since his story was never finished after Sons of Dathomir.

I'm so ready for that Ahsoka - Vader duel.

There's going to be a bunch of Ezra is Snoke theories now too.

My guess is Snoke is probably a new character. Or Maul.
The Plagueis theory was denied by J.J., so I don't know. I guess you can't really take his word since he denied Khan would be in Star Trek: Into Darkness.

Thanks, captain obvious.

On that note, HOLY CRUDE!!! That was an epic trailer!

AND HECK YEAH, DARTH MAUL IS BACK! And I can't wait to see Yoda and Ahsoka vs Vader!

*NinjaPug* · 01-15-2016, 06:31 PM

Filoni goes into detail on the new trailer. So damn excited for the rest of this season.
