Today's new video clip is from Star Wars Rebels. Dave Filoni and team discuss their new character "Hera" in this interview. This is the seventh and final major new character for Disney XD’s Star Wars Rebels. While this concludes the major new characters being introduced for the show’s launch, we suspect there will be some familiar faces popping up in the series, and other new characters being revealed once the show gets underway. Meet Hera, the pilot for the Ghost crew of rebels fighting the Empire. She’s a Twi’lek and “She is a very strong-minded character,” says Rebels executive producer Dave Filoni, “kind of the heart of the group, keeps everyone together when they would otherwise fall apart.” Enjoy! | |
