Calling all Rebels! If you are a fan of Star Wars Rebels like our family is then the Force is calling you because now Star Wars Rebels: Complete Season Three can be yours  this Tuesday, August 29. This action packed series will make the hyperspace leap from the television screen into your home bringing with it all 22 action-packed episodes of the hit CG animated series’ second season, plus exclusive, never-before-seen bonus material on DVD and Blu-ray!

This is the thrilling continuation of the Star Wars Rebels saga depicting the continued efforts of the crew of the starship Ghost to defeat the evil Empire. This season connects to STAR WARS THE CLONE WARS, ROGUE ONE, and of course the original STAR WARS trilogy!

As you recall  Season Three continues the saga as Ezra leads a mission to rescue Hondo Ohnaka from an imperial prison, displaying Force skills that he’s learned from the Sith Holocron in the process. Hondo’s intel regards a squadron of Y-Wings due to be destroyed at an Imperial shipyard that the Rebels set out to appropriate, with Ezra being given command of the mission. Kanan, meanwhile, is struggling with his blindness when he discovers Ezra’s use of the Holocron and confiscates it, before being summoned out into the Atollon wilds by a mysterious call that proves to be from the Bendu, (Tom Baker) an ancient Force user who is neither Jedi nor Sith. Meanwhile, Governor Pryce decides that the growing rebel threat requires a greater response and requisitions the Seventh Fleet, which is revealed to be under the leadership of the recently promoted Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen).

Having established a secret base on Atollon, the Ghost crew, now led by a more powerful Ezra, strengthens the Rebel fleet by acquiring new resources and recruits eager to stand against the Empire.  However, the Imperial efforts to eliminate the Rebellion are now being led by the coldly analytical Grand Admiral Thrawn, whose strategic, tactical and cultural insights make him a threat unlike any they have faced before. Ezra and Sabine must take on new roles and challenges as the Rebels prepare for their biggest mission yet – a direct assault on the Empire. and the events that will lead right up to the moment that the  Ghost crew is set on their collision course with destiny as the action brings them closer to Rogue One and the original Star Wars trilogy. 

Star Wars Rebels: Complete Season Three delivers some of the most critically-acclaimed Star Wars storytelling to date, with engaging characters, harrowing conflicts, and spectacular space battles on par with those seen in the films.  The animated series was created by Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars), Simon Kinberg (“X-Men: Days of Future Past”), and Carrie Beck.
