In the last few weeks, there has been some information, as well as a lot of speculation, about the recently announced
Rebels animated series. Following the initial
teaser image of a TIE Fighter a few weeks ago, a sketch of a TIE Pilot was recently posted on
Dave Filoni's Facebook page, with the caption, "Something to go with the TIE Fighter I drew...".
There was also
an article posted on StarWars.com, noting the departure of design artist and sculptor Darren Marshall, who has help to design the look of the characters on
The Clone Wars, as well as for
Star Wars Rebels. At the end of the article is a photo of Dave Filoni, Marshal, and a Stormtrooper head sculpt.
Bleeding Cool is reporting that the the show's title has a double meaning, in that, in addition to the formation of the Rebel Alliance, the show's main characters will be 'rebellious' teenagers.
Finally, Dave FIloni was on
Rebel Force Radio this past week, where he stated that
Rebels will be 'different' from
The Clone Wars, "more with an animated style", with the look of Ralph McQuarie's paintings.
