Star Wars Rebelshasn’t quite reached the same levels of excitement as the films in theStar Warssaga, but the series has also never been bad. With episodes offering fantastic insight into the events betweenRevenge of the SithandA New Hope, there are always interesting details to glean, even if the stories haven’t always been remarkable.
Easily the best part ofStar Wars Rebelshas been the new characters introduced intoStar Warscanon. There’s the Jedi master and apprentice duo of Kanan Jarrus and Ezra Bridger, the Mandalorian warrior Sabine Wren, theTwi’lek rebelHera Syndulla and the Lasat pilotGarazeb “Zeb” Orrelios.
Plus,Star Wars Rebelshas magnificently used established villains like Darth Vader, Darth Maul and Grand Admiral Thrawn with great success, not to mention introducing new villains like Agent Kallus and The Inquisitors.
For the fourth season, we’re hoping executive producerDave Filonipulls out all the stops and sends off the crew of the Ghost in a fashion that allows us to meet them again sometime down the road, either in a live-action form or a spin-off series sometime down the road. We know that we won’t see the cast of Star Wars Rebelsmixed up with any of the eventsof Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but there are still plenty of exciting possibilities for this final season.
