Star Wars Rebels Season 3: 10 Most Anticipated Moments

10. Old Faces

With the sheer number of movie and Clone Wars appearances it crams in, it's a wonder that Rebels has any time for original characters. At this point, the Ghost crew are basically the space equivalent of Forrest Gump; fighting Darth Vader and Darth Maul, teaming up with Lando Calrissian, and seeking wisdom from Yoda.

This season our heroes have already crossed paths with Rogue One character Saw Gerrera, and next up is an encounter with Rebel leaders Mon Mothma and Jan Dodonna. Which actually makes a lot of sense since the show’s timeline is moving further and further towards the formation of the full Rebellion and eventually A New Hope.

Since the show brought back Forest Whittaker as Saw Gerrera for this season, fingers, claws, and tentacles are crossed that the Rogue One connection goes further and that the Rebels team have managed to get Genevieve O’Reilly and Ian McElhinney to reprise their roles as well. And yes, there is a far more important movie cameo coming up in Season 3 but, much like Rebels itself, I'll get to that.
