‘Star Wars Rebels’ Season 3 Trailer: Shaping Up To Be A Grand (Admiral) Time

Frak. Why aren’t I watching Star Wars Rebels. Also, FWIW, I’d love Thrawn’s appearance in Rebels to be eventually parlayed into a cinematic appearance. Am I dreaming?

Spin-Off:

With the conclusion of the “Star Wars Rebels” panel at “Star Wars” Celebration Europe, Lucasfilm has released the trailer for the upcoming third season of the Disney XD series.

Clocking in at three and a half minutes, the trailer offers an extensive look at the new time-jumped status quo, including Kanan following his injuries, a more mature — and possibly more dangerous — Ezra, “flying Stormtroopers” and, yes, Grand Admiral Thrawn.

“To defeat an enemy, you must know them,” says the ruthless Thrawn. “Not simply their battle tactics, but their history, philosophy …”

The trailer also introduces Wedge Antilles to the Rebellion, and reintroduces Hondo (of course, we already knew he was back).
