Star Wars Rebels is awesome! It’s a CGI animated show with four seasons. It transpires outside of the Skywalker saga, but it contains many connections to other Star Wars media, including films. In fact, the main ship in this show is called the Ghost and it appears in Rogue One and The Rise of Skywalker. The main droid in this show also gets a very brief cameo in Rogue One. This show covers the crew of the Ghost and their place in events between The Clone Wars (show and movie) and Rogue One.
The show’s main characters don’t just have one Jedi among them, but two. Kanan Jarrus (voiced by Freddie Prince, Jr.) lost his Jedi Master due to Order 66. He then stepped away from the Jedi, but when he met one of the show’s other main characters, Ezra Bridger, he decided to train Ezra, seeing he was also Force-sensitive. The main pilot of the Ghost is a Twi’lek named Hera Syndulla. Her father is General Cham Syndulla on Ryloth. She was just a young child during the Clone Wars. The “muscle” of the group is a Lasat named Zeb. There is also a very creative Mandalorian named Sabine Wren. Finally, the android is known as Chopper. These main characters make up a family, more than just a great Rebel team.
Other characters make appearances as well, such as the Emperor, Darth Vader, Maul, and Ahsoka Tano, among others. The show even traverses into some familiar places, such as Genonosis and Yavin 4. It also showcases familiar ships as well. It’s a wonderful show that ties in with the existing Star Wars universe as we know it, giving us another perspective of what transpires within the canon timeline. I strongly recommend watching it.
