UPDATE! New Star Wars Rebels Episode Names & Descriptions Revealed; New Trailer May Be Imminent, Show May Return In Early February

One week ago, we got some spoiler-rific episode titles for the first two episodes of Star Wars Rebels to arrive after the end of the hiatus. In addition, new evidence arrives to suggest that the trailer for the remaining few episodes will be arriving soon.

 

 

Zap2It (via JediBibliothek) lists two more episodes of the seven that are left:

Wolves And A Door: Ezra and the Ghost crew learn the Empire has plans for the Jedi Temple on Lothal. [Airs March 10. 2018.]

A World Between Worlds: While the other rebels engage the Imperial forces outside the Jedi temple, Ezra gains access inside and experiences a revelation. [Airs March 17, 2018.]

 

This information is a little interesting in and of itself because there were previously three other episode names listed – Allegiance, One Giant Step Ahead, and Call of the Spectre – that indicated that all episodes were named except for the presumed two-part finale. But these two listings suggest that the episode names might have been changed mid-production. Thankfully, we won’t have long to wait to make sense of this discrepancy.

 

In addition, there are also a few things to indicate that we’re about to get a new trailer very, very soon. Take, for example, this mysterious listing added to Star Wars YouTube channel’s Rebels playlist:

 

Mid season trailer ‘confirmed’ for tomorrow?? from StarWarsLeaks

 

 

It’s not uncommon for an uploader who schedules new videos for certain times of day to put a video in a playlist shortly before revealing it to the public, and it looks like that’s what’s happening here. Even more interesting is that some prominent staff within Lucasfilm are indicating that we’ll have a lot more information in a matter of days:

 

 

 

 

Cannobbio’s comments in particular are also interesting – in a reply to her comment, she also heavily implies that the schedule we’ve previously seen may be different for UK viewers than it is for American viewers. So with that in mind and the presence of “incorrect info” discussed above, we might get the return of Rebels a little earlier than expected after all…

 

 

UPDATE!

 

A fan of ours on Twitter gave us an interesting lead based on one of their television listings. If these listings are accurate, then Rebels returns early next month instead of late next month.

 

 

 

 

Again – with the trailer nearly here, we’ll find out soon enough.

    How does Rebels stack up to Clone Wars?

    I really enjoyed Clone Wars quite a bit. But I tried to get into Rebels, watched the first few epiosdes, But I just couldn’t get past the silly Sabine character.

    Did it ever get any better?

      There are some cool episodes. Over all, it doesn’t touch clone wars in quality, imo.

      Sabine actually is a character that acquires some dept as the series goes on, in Trials of the Darksaber. Rebels’s first season is not a great deal, but TCW’s first season eas neither. I’d say the storyline started to excel towards the ending of season 1, with 2 having some great moments (Season 2’s finale’s last 10 minutes is, I dare to say, superior to any TCW finale I’ve seen), 3 suffering from the presence of several fillers. I suggest a redux, filler-less view (I myself came up with a list that keeps 56 episodes altogether). Overall, it has a generally good arc, great connections with TCW and the OT, it is sometimes a bit less mature than TCW (this comes up mostly in the fillers), has numerous fillers that simply should be skipped, but some decisive moments for several beloved characters. I found myself several times emotionally touched by rebels in a manner TCW didn’t, but I’m not sure how much is that because of TCW-related nostalgia.

        You also have to go into ‘Rebels’ having watched the Star Wars Celebration Panel on the untold stories for full effect. The series assumes they all happened anyway, which could lead to some confusion in later seasons when it comes to things like the state of Mandalore and Maul.

          true but to be fair it’s really just some slight mentions.

      Sabine is actually the least silly character in Rebels.
      And no, in my opinion it does not get any better, even though it has an occasional streak of genius, usually in the mid-season finales.

      It gets better toward the end of season one and really hits its stride in season two, which is in my opinion their best season.

      However it never comes close to the awesomeness of clone Wars, especially when clone wars hit its peak in season two and season three.

      There are some fairly cool payoffs for Clone Wars fans. I agree with Paul and season 2 being their best. It’s… meandered a bit since then. They brought in Thrawn but… not much has come of it IMO.

      Still… it’s a kids show. I have to remind myself of that. It’s not meant to be the most amazing thing ever.

    Ezra has a revelation inside the Jedi temple. What could that be ? It would be a shame if Ezra were simply killed off at the end of Rebels after all he went through. He should have some connection to the ST.

      What many people hope is that he survives and shows up in a post-ROTJ series like Ahsoka did going from TCW to Rebels. If that happens, he could be a part of Luke’s Jedi Academy or an ally to Luke.

    Rebels will be redeemed in my eyes if the final episode is just the Ghost in the battle of Scarif.

      I would also love to see such episode where Ghost is shown battling above Scarif – fingers crossed for this crossover.

      That would be awful if that was the final episode. It should be about these characters and their story. Not guest starring in another story.

      It would be glorious if they did that but also tricky. They’ve got to wrap up all their own story beats… and it can already feel pressed for time in that show.

    Filoni is trolling us with that tweet. He’s trying to imply that Thrawn dies. If they kill off Thrawn in Rebels…I will throw something at my TV. He could be such a great character for the post-ROTJ canon.

      I hope not. What point it will be to sell books and comix about already somehow stupidly killed character. I really really wish that Emperor gives him a task in unknown regions that will be a bit clouded so that it can be used for new canon (not my case) or old legends canon so that both SW FAN fractions could use this character

      Not if you know anything about what happens post-ROTJ.

    There is another Star Wars trailer I would like to see right about now…. but it’s not Rebels.

      I’d take an official look at Alden as Han Solo at this point.

    Those lightsabers are still way too thin – even compared to he ones in the original trilogy.

    Kanan dies saving Hera. Ashoka returns at some point to train Ezra. The rest of them go to Yavin. Leia goes to get Obiwan. Ashoka and Ezra go to Alderaan to meet up with Obiwan to reform the Jedi order. Then boom. It’s a children’s show so we don’t actually see their deaths but the implications are there. Also leaves them some wiggle room in case they wanted to bring Ashoka or Ezra back.

      Yup, totally agree. Leaving them on Alderaan is a great way to do it.

      That wouldn’t work, due to Mon Monthma’s words in Rogue One. She talks to Bail and asks him to go get Obi Wan. If there were other Jedi just hanging out on his planet I think he would know about it and so would Mon. Something else happens to these characters where they just aren’t in the fight anymore.

        You’re probably right it won’t happen this way but it could. Of course they know about Kanan and Ezra they have interacted with them on the show. But they are no Obi Wan. I don’t really see it interfering with Rogue One.

      Damn that’s a really good way to resolve those stories in a way that doesn’t conflict with the OT.

    Ezra’s revelation? Possibly Ahsoka’s survival

    I think season two is really awesome. And Rebels may come back after the mid season hiatus and be super strong and these final episodes may end up being some of the greatest episodes of the enitre series. However, to me, the fourth season so far has not been amazing, which is what I was hoping for knowing it was the final season. Personally a few of the episodes felt like they were treading water and as a result were unnecessary, in the context that we have a finite amount of time left with these characters due to this being the final season.
