We still don’t know the subject ofGareth EdwardsandGary Whitta’s 2016Star Warsspin-off movie, but a clue might have hit Twitter earlier this week.
That’sDuncan Jones, the director ofMoonandWarcraft, hanging at Lucasfilm with Edwards and Whitta. They gave him a Yoda Pop figure. Now, do they have Yoda Pop figures laying around because they are making a Yoda movie or did they give him an arbitrary character? I tend to think, if the movie was about Yoda, the one character they would NEVER give him is Yoda. So I’m going with that. They’re making a movie about any character except Yoda. But, anything could happen.
Remember thatEpisode VIIStormtrooper helmetposted a few weeks back? WellStar Wars 7 Newsreports the original image had some GPS coordinates attached to it, like many photos do. And guess where it was taken? Pinewood Studios. Now, that kind of information could surely be faked so I wouldn’t say this is 100% definitive but it’s a heck of a fake if it is that. Also, here’s a cool fan renditionof the entire body.
White shirt. Black vest. Looks like a Solo to me!

It’s a little childish, butthis videoexplains where and howStar Wars Rebelsfits into the largerStar Warstimeline in case you were unclear.
undefined on Disney Video
Disney’s popular video game,Disney Infinity, is geting a Marvel upgrade later this Fall but in an interview withNewsarama, executives teased the next update wasn’t exactly “far, far away,” an obvious reference toStar Wars. You can bet Star Wars characters will be coming to Disney Infinity in 2015.
Comic Bookhas a solid interview withDave Filoniwhere he talks about the creation ofStar Wars Rebels. The use of music, some of the tech, characters etc. It’s a very fun read for anyone looking forward to the show.
Again, this is a little cheesy, but the people atJakks Pacificput together this video tour trying to uncovers looks at some of the toys forStar Wars Rebels. Thanks toJediNewsfor the heads up.
