Star Wars Rebels Season 4 Story
Just a quick update here on what to expect in Star Wars Rebels season 4. Following the dramatic conclusion to season 3, producer Dave Filoni has teased what's coming next on the Rebels Recon YouTube series.
Season 4 will apparently feature the return of Saw Gerrera and Mon Mothma, with Filoni promising we'll get to see "much more of an insight into seeing how that relationship breaks down and breaks apart."
We'll also get to visit Mandalore, Sabine's home planet, which featured a lot in the Clone Wars animated series. "The longer we’ve gone with this series, the more it just has occurred to me that Rebels really is, in a lot of ways, going to finish Clone Wars," Feloni explained.
"It’s going to give us an ending for so many things that I didn’t get to finish. That was never intentional, that was never the goal. But it’s kind of worked out that way. Some of these characters have come into it, and I think that’s a good thing in a way, that they’re kind of a partnered series, while exactly explicitly connected, there is a shared story path for many characters it it, which I think is a good thing."
Also, season 4 "might be possibly, possibly, possibly when you get to see an X-wing." Fingers crossed on that front!
