De los creadores de Las guerras clon y el guionista Simon Kinberg llega Star Wars Rebels, primera producción de Disney sobre Star Wars desde la adquisición de Lucasfilm –y, como apuntaba Ángel, única excepción del formateo que ha recibido el Universo Expandido de Star Wars, que pervivirá en algunos detalles de esta serie–.
Star Wars Rebels se sitúa después de la última trilogía cinematográfica, con el Imperio ya como dominador del universo conocido. Frente a las tropas imperiales, existe un pequeño y heterogéneo grupo de rebeldes a bordo de una nave, la Fantasma. La serie estará centrada en sus aventuras, y comenzará con un especial de una hora de duración, que se retransmitirá este otoño (aunque la compañía no descarga un estreno cinematográfico veraniego en algunos cines del país, que seguirá con una emisión regular en el canal Disney XD.

La saga se prolonga con el estreno el próximo 3 de octubre (20.45 horas en Disney XD) de la película Star Wars Rebels: la chispa de la rebelión. Este diario les ofrece en exclusiva un avance: se trata del corto Enredo.
La historia se desarrolla en una época oscura, durante la que el Imperio aumenta su control en toda la galaxia. Las fuerzas imperiales han ocupado un remoto planeta, en el que gobiernan con mano de hierro arruinando la vida de sus gentes. El inteligente y variopinto equipo de la nave El Espíritu está compuesto por los pocos valientes capaces de plantar cara al Imperio.
