Not too long ago, Lucasfilm announced that a new animated series titled Star Wars: Rebels will premiere on Disney XD next year. Focusing on the formation of the Rebel Alliance, the show will take place in between Episodes III and IV, and yesterday we heard that it will focus on new characters as well as familiar faces from the legendary franchise. Now, Bleeding Cool reports some more info on the series. The subtitle "Rebels" applies to the main characters (unsurprisingly), and the majority of these protagonists are said to be teenagers. Before you get too worried, Bleeding Cool notes that, despite the show being aimed at a younger audience, none of these characters are expected to be on the same level as someone like Jar-Jar Binks. Instead, they're "just a lot of youthful protagonists being teens at the same time as sci-fi heroes." What do you think of this news? And will you be watching Star Wars: Rebels on Disney XD next year?
