Star Wars Rebels' Hera Syndulla is finally set to make her live-action debut in this year's Ahsoka series. But did you know the Twi'lek captain of the Ghost Crew actually briefly made her presence felt during the events of Rogue One, too?

While on Yavin 4, a "General Syndulla" is told to "report to the briefing room" over the tannoy in the background as Jyn storms off from a council who refused to risk it all to get their hands on the Empire's Death Star plans.

And that isn't the only easily missed Rebels cameo on show in the flick, with the Ghost ship itself being present in the Yavin hanger and during the Battle of Scarif.

Also, the mischievous astromech known as Chopper scooted on by for a spell, rolling across the screen as news of the Rogue One group taking a trip to Scarif made its way to the Rebel base.
