Star Wars: Rebels

And here's our replacement for Clone Wars. Coming to Disney XD in fall 2014. Bridges the gap between Eps 3 and 4. Looks...very cool. Conceptually.



Bit more detail:

Star Wars Rebels, a one-hour animated pilot already in production at Lucasfilm, is scheduled to premiere in Fall 2014 on the Disney Channel before the new brand leaps to Disney XD for the ongoing series, according to Lucasfilm sources.

The series will mine material from the 19 years that follow Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and precede the Episode IV: A New Hope. In other words, using the life of the Skywalker twins as a measure, the series will be active in the story years that come after their separation as newborns and before their (unwitting) reunion on the prison level of the Death Star.

No word on whether the show will feature Darth Vader (who would be in the Empire’s power consolidation years and earning his reputation) or even pull in a character like Han Solo, the smuggler and cynic who becomes an unlikely freedom fighter when he opts to stand with his friends against cosmic odds. The title of the show is vaguely phrased in a way that any rebel — even a Boba Fett or Ahsoka Tano might qualify as a title character merely by walking an outsider’s path.

The series has three executive producers: Dave Filoni, the point man on The Clone Wars animated series that launched in 2008; screenwriter and producer Simon Kinberg, who has a flair for tonal rewiring and energizing familiar brands with new edge (e.g.: X-Men: First Class, Sherlock Holmes); and Greg Weisman, whose credits include well-regarded work on Young Justice and The Spectacular Spider-Man.

Absolutely love watching rebels with my 6 year old.

Very much looking forward to a potential Vader / Ahsoka showdown in Season 2.

Have they announced when Season 2 will air?

I doubt I'll be able to digest the awesomeness of Episode VII in one sitting, so I'll likely watch it again, later that day. I'll see it few days after, especially since the kids will be on Winter Break by that point.

I remember seeing the TPM the first time. I could barely follow what was happening, not only because it was convoluted, but because there was so much screaming and cheering with each new character entrance.

I think I saw it four times in the first week.

It hasn't been announced yet. The hour long Season 2 premiere was shown at Star Wars Celebration but no release date was given.

It completely blows up in Season 2. People say the premiere felt like a Star Wars movie, not TV.

We're plowing through TCW and if you haven't seen it, I'd highly recommend. It is just sooooooooooooo good.

They need to alter JEJs voice a bit. It's not deep enough. Age has changed it.

I think they probably pitched it up, because he's much younger in Rebels than in later years.

Also, I felt like they used too much Eventide Harmonizer, which is set to pitch shift the voice. They used much less in Empire and even less in Return. I know they're trying to get back to that 70's vibe and Ralph McQuarrie's original art but there's no reason to drown JEJ's voice in a pitch shifting effect.

Agreed completely. I've always liked Vader's voice in Empire the best.

Man, I'm watching Vader clips and just hoping Kylo Ren is 75% of the asshole Vader was.

We need a real villain, not that prequel bullshit.

From what I've heard the movie opens with Ren establishing himself as a cruel, sadistic son of a bitch, though.

Interesting, thanks.

Disney would be wise to premiere it on ABC.

I think it's safe to say that Ren will be the most hated mother****er in SW history by the end of the movie.
