I have enjoyed being part of the ‘Star Wars generation’ – watching the original trilogy in the movie theater when it first premiered and growing up, adoring Luke, Leia, Han, R2-D2 and knowing the lines by heart. My coveted action figure collection is still packed away with several other childhood treasures.

What is Star Wars Rebels about?
In the midst of increasing Imperial oppression on Lothal, the rebels are forced to seek out new allies throughout the galaxy and additional resources to sustain their fight against the Empire. Ahsoka Tano and the crew of the Ghost band together with a secret rebel cell and ex-soldiers from the Clone Wars to join a fledgling alliance determined to restore peace and freedom to the galaxy.
As Ezra continues his journey to become a Jedi under Kanan’s guidance, the threat of the dark side looms large over the fate of the growing rebellion. Darth Vader will personally dispatch new Inquisitors to snuff any spark of resistance. This sets the stage for a climactic showdown in which past lives will be revealed, terrible truths will be discovered, and the lives of our heroes will be changed forever.
Star Wars Rebels was created by Dave Filoni (“Star Wars: The Clone Wars”), Simon Kinberg (“X-Men: Days of Future Past,” “Sherlock Holmes”), and Carrie Beck. The Lucasfilm Animation production is also executive-produced by Filoni and Kinberg.
