As promised on Friday, a full trailer for Star Wars Rebels has been released, giving us a good look at Disney's new animated television series. Disney's upcoming series takes place between the STAR WARS films REVENGE OF THE SITH and A NEW HOPE, and will focus on the formation of the Rebellion as the Empire attempts to hunt down the last of the Jedi Knights. I'm not completely sold on Star Wars Rebels based on this trailer, however I do think it could be a decent animated series, or at least something your kid can watch that won't annoy the hell out of you.
Join the Rebellion.
Synopsis:
"Star Wars Rebels" continues the epic tradition of the legendary Star Wars saga with all-new exciting, action-packed adventures. It is a dark time in the galaxy, as the evil Galactic Empire tightens its grip of power from world to world. As the series begins, Imperial forces have occupied a remote planet, ruling with an iron fist and ruining the lives of its people. The clever and motley crew of the starship Ghost is amongst a select few who are brave enough to stand against the Empire. Together, this ragtag group will face threatening new villains, encounter colorful adversaries, embark on thrilling adventures and become heroes with the power to ignite a rebellion.
Star Wars Rebels will premiere this fall as a one-hour special on the Disney Channel before continuing as a series on Disney XD.
