The May the Fourth celebrations are very much underway and the official Star Wars YouTube channel has revealed the first sixty second and thirty second spots for Star Wars Rebels has landed. We’ve gotten a number of interesting conceptual images and shots from the show recently and now we’re getting closer to the series itself. The show is set to have a one-hour preview this fall before going into the full series itself on Disney XD. With the series exploring the time between the third and fourth installments and taking a lot of cues from the McQuarrie artwork, it’s settling in well to its design and has a lot of potential.
The series stars Freddie Prinze, Jr., Taylor Gray, Steve Blum, Tiya Sircar and Vanessa Marshall.
Plot concept: Set between the events of Episode III and IV — an era spanning almost two decades never-before explored on-screen. It takes place in a time where the Empire is securing its grip on the galaxy and hunting down the last of the Jedi Knights as a fledgling rebellion against the Empire is taking shape.
