Wow there’s a ton of awesomeness in this new sneak peek trailer, including Jedi Master Luminara Unduli, C-3PO and R2-D2!

You might be thinking didn’t Luminara die on Kashyyyk during Order 66. Well we never saw so maybe she didn’t, or to quote Admiral Ackbar, maybe it’s a trap.

Star Wars Rebels is set between the events of Episode III and IV, an era spanning almost two decades never-before explored on-screen. It takes place in a time where the Empire is securing its grip on the galaxy and hunting down the last of the Jedi Knights as a fledgling rebellion against the Empire is taking shape.

Starring a small band of heroes: Sabine, Kanan, Hera, Ezra, Zeb, and Chopper.

Star Wars Rebels will be produced by Lucasfilm Animation, featuring many of the key talents that made Star Wars: The Clone Wars. It’s executive produced by Dave Filoni, Simon Kinberg, and Greg Weisman, is scheduled to premiere in October 2014 as a one-hour special telecast on Disney Channel and will be followed by a series on Disney XD channels around the world.
