Star Wars Rebels Season 2 is set to return television October 14, and Lucasfilm and Disney XD have released a behind-the-scenes featurette that takes a look at some of the adventures in store for the crew of the Ghost. Check it out in the player below!
As Star Wars Rebels Season 2 opens, the crew of the Ghost is now a very real threat to the Empire. That’s bad news, because Darth Vader’s been assigned with the task of mopping them up. Undeterred, the rebels seek out old friends and new allies, hoping to rally the formidable alliance which began to crystallize at the end of Season One. Vader will dispatch new agents to counter their growing coalition, but the Sith Lord’s battle with the Rebels could be more personal than anyone realized.
The cast for the series is made up of Freddie Prinze, Jr. as Kanan, Vanessa Marshall as Hera, Tiya Sircar as Sabine, Steve Blum as Zeb, and Taylor Gray Ezra. In addition, the series has brought back a number of classic characters with Stephen Stanton voicing Grand Moff Tarkin (played by Peter Cushing in the original film) along with Phil LaMarr as Bail Organa and other original actors for some characters including Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian, Frank Oz as Yoda, and Anthony Daniels as C-3PO.
If you haven’t already seen it, be sure to check out the Star Wars Rebels Season 2 trailer and look for the Star Wars Rebels Season 2 premiere, titled “The Lost Commanders,” on Disney XD October 14. As previously revealed, it will feature the return of Star Wars: The Clone Wars clone troopers Rex, Wolffe and Gregor.
