What better way to celebrate New Year’s Eve than to watch a
marathon of back to back episodes of the Disney XD hit series Star Wars Rebels? The marathon, which
will start at 16h00 on December 31, kicks off with the one-hour Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion
that includes a cameo by none other than Darth Vader himself, voiced by the
distinguished actor James Earl Jones.
So travel back into that galaxy, a far, far away this New
Year’s Eve and catch up on the interstellar action, drama and animated
exhilaration from Disney XD’s latest hit series!
Star Wars Rebels
premiered on Disney XD (DStv, Channel 304) in October and is set between the
events of Star Wars Episodes III and
IV, a dark time when the evil Galactic Empire is tightening its grip of power
on the galaxy. Imperial forces have occupied a remote planet and are ruining
the lives of its people. The motley but clever crew of the starship Ghost -
cowboy Jedi Kanan, ace pilot Hera, street-smart teenager Ezra, the “muscle”
Zeb, warrior firebrand Sabine, and cantankerous old astromech droid Chopper -
is among a select few who are brave enough to stand against the Empire.
Together, they will face threatening new villains, encounter colorful
adversaries, embark on thrilling adventures and become heroes with the power to
ignite a rebellion.
The voice cast includes Freddie Prinze Jr. as Kanan, Vanessa
Marshall as Hera, Steve Blum as Zeb, Tiya Sircar as Sabine, Taylor Gray as
Ezra, David Oyelowo as Agent Kallus and Jason Isaacs as the Inquisitor.
Star Wars Rebels is created by Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars), Simon
Kinberg (X-Men: Days of Future Past, Sherlock
Holmes), and Carrie Beck. The Lucasfilm Animation production is also
executive-produced by Filoni and Kinberg as well as Greg Weisman (Gargoyles).
