STAR WARS REBEL: First Look At Imperial Cadet Zare Leonis
Thanks to the websites, Stitch Kingdom and Rebels Report, we have our first looks at Imperial cadet Zare Leonis from Disney's upcoming animated series, Star Wars Rebels. Check him out.
Websites, Stitch Kingdom and Rebels Report, ”Star Wars Rebels Servants of the Empire: Edge of the Galaxy." What's that? It's a novel based on the new Disney animated series, Star Wars Rebels. As you can see on the cover, we got a new character. He's Zare Leonis - a cadet for the Imperial army... who becomes a spy.
Starring a small band of heroes -- Sabine, Kanan, Hera, Ezra, Zeb, and Chopper -- Star Wars Rebels is set in a time where the Empire rules through fear and shrouds the galaxy in darkness. This trailer offers many new glimpses at sequences from the show, including the starship Ghost chased by TIE Fighters; young Ezra watching as a Star Destroyer looms overhead; Stormtroopers marching; a zero-g fight between our heroes and Imperials; and Kanan, a secret Jedi, assembling his lightsaber and preparing for battle. It ends, however, with an Imperial officer reporting to the Inquisitor -- the Empire's Jedi hunter, seen and heard here for the first time. Star Wars Rebels takes place between Star Wars: Episode III and IV as the Empire tightens its grip on the galaxy and a rebellion begins to form. The series, executive produced by Dave Filoni, Simon Kinberg, and Greg Weisman, is scheduled to premiere in fall 2014 as a one-hour special telecast on Disney Channel and will be followed by a series on Disney XD.
