Disney Channels Worldwide has announced a second season for the Star Wars Rebels animated series from Lucasfilm, more than a day before the series’ TV premiere (see "'Star Wars Rebels' Launch Plans Revealed").
"The global expectations for this series could not have been any higher. And I am proud to say that the team at Lucasfilm has delivered something that has surpassed even that incredibly high bar - artistically and thematically," said Disney Channels Worldwide President and Chief Creative Officer Gary Marsh.
Rebels had an advance screening at San Diego Comic-Con, as well as a special preview on Disney’s digital platforms. The TV movie Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion, will premiere Friday, October 3 at 9 pm ET/PT on the Disney Channel, and Monday, October 6th at 8pm ET/PT on Disney XD.
