Star Wars Rebels: New Episode Highlights Zed and Chopper
Star Wars Rebels returned over the weekend with a special two-part episode, “Ghosts of Geonosis,” which featured an appearance for the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story character Saw Gerrera, with Forest Whitaker reprising his role from the live-action film. This weekend will feature the 14th episode of Season Three, which is “Warhead.” Today, Lucasfilm and Disney XD released some new images and a new clip for the episode, which you can check out below.
In “Warhead,” Zeb and Chopper bring a damaged droid found in the Atollon wilderness back to the base. However, they soon discover that this is a new Imperial probe droid that’s been programmed to spy on the Rebel Alliance and destroy it. The droid seems to have a resemblance to the Ralph McQuarrie concept artwork for C-3PO. The clip features Chopper and his friend AP-5 introducing this new droid to the Rebel base. However, it’s more than meets the eye.
The new episode of Star Wars Rebels Season Three, “Warhead,” airs on Saturday, January 14 on Disney XD at 8:30 p.m., ET/PT. Star Wars Rebels airs every Saturday at 8:30 p.m. on Disney XD.
