Star Wars Rebels: “The Last Battle” Clip & Stills Released
The third season of Star Wars Rebels marches on, with episode 3.06 exploring some remnants of the legendary Clone Wars. Lucasfilm and Disney XD released a new clip and stills this week for the next upcoming episode in the third season of Star Wars Rebels. You can check out the new clip and images for The Last Battle below. The episode airs tomorrow on Disney XD.
In “The Last Battle,” Ezra, Kanan, Zeb and Chopper have been captured by a unit of battle droids from the Clone Wars. These droids are dead set on fighting one more battle in order to win the Clone Wars for the Separatists during a salvage mission. The new clip shows Captain Rex, Ezra and Kanan in the grip of the battle droids as prisoners. The droids are being led by a Super Tactical Droid, who along with his battalion, are still functioning over 20 years after the war has ended.
Somehow, this battle droid battalion was somehow able to prevent their droid shutdown order from Revenge of the Sith by assuming it was some type of Jedi trick. Were the previous battle droids even capable of predicting such espionage? Either way, this story looks like an interesting one with which to revisit the Clone Wars and what happened there.
The new episode of Star Wars Rebels, “The Last Battle,” airs on Saturday, October 22 at 8:30 pm ET/PT on Disney XD.
