Star Wars Resistance animated series announced!
-----------------------------------------------
Disney Channel and Lucasfilm have announced the start of
production on 'Star Wars Resistance', a new animated
adventure series set in that galaxy far, far away and
taking place just before the events of 'Star Wars: The
Force Awakens!' 'Star Wars Resistance' will premiere
this fall!

The series centers on Kazuda Xiono, a young pilot
recruited by the Resistance and tasked with a top-secret
mission to spy on the growing threat of the First Order.
It will also feature the beloved droid BB-8 alongside ace
pilots, colorful new characters and appearances by fan
favorites including Poe Dameron and Captain Phasma,
voiced by actors Oscar Isaac and Gwendoline Christie,
respectively.

The series was created by renowned Lucasfilm Animation
veteran Dave Filoni ('Star Wars: The Clone Wars', 'Star
Wars Rebels'); executive-produced by Athena Portillo
('Star Wars: The Clone Wars', 'Star Wars Rebels'), Justin
Ridge ('Star Wars: The Clone Wars', 'Star Wars Rebels')
and Brandon Auman ('Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'); and
art-directed by Amy Beth Christenson (S'tar Wars: The Clone
Wars', 'Star Wars Rebels').

"The idea for 'Star Wars Resistance' came out of my
interest in World War II aircraft and fighter pilots" said
Filoni. "My grandfather was a pilot and my uncle flew and
restored planes, so that's been a big influence on me.
There's a long history of high-speed racing in Star Wars,
and I think we've captured that sense of excitement in an
anime-inspired style, which is something the entire team
has been wanting to do for a long time."

Marc Buhaj, senior vice president, Programming and general
manager, Disney XD, said, "Our colleagues at Lucasfilm have
created a compelling narrative for an untold moment in the
Star Wars galaxy, and we are excited to partner with them
again on this new original series. 'Star Wars Resistance'
will bring viewers across generations an engaging story with
heart, humor and both new and familiar characters."

The voice cast also includes: Christopher Sean ('Days of Our
Lives'), Suzie McGrath ('East Enders'), Scott Lawrence
('Legion'), Myrna Velasco ('Elena of Avalor'), Josh Brener
('Silicon Valley'), Donald Faison ('Scrubs'), Bobby Moynihan
('DuckTales'), Jim Rash ('Community') and Rachel Butera
('Tammy's Tiny Tea Time').

What about Star Wars: Rebels? It's ended? I haven't seen the latest
