Fighters and lightsabers that everybody loves. Catch up with who's who in the videos above and below...

Exclusive: 'Star Wars Rebels' is Recruiting!

Marking the first original Star Wars entertainment produced by Lucasfilm as part of The Walt Disney Company (a little project called Star Wars: Episode VII is also coming to theaters in December 2015 -- more on that when we actually know something new), Star Wars Rebels takes place four years prior to the events of Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, a time in which the Empire rules the galaxy with an iron fist. The loyalty of its citizens is entrenched through fear and deception, and the Emperor is seeking to expand his power to the Outer Rim territories. The all-new series tells the never-before-seen story of new heroes that dare to stand up to the ever-growing might of the Galactic Empire in the days before the Rebel Alliance formed.

Star Wars Rebels is scheduled to premiere in fall 2014 as a one-hour special telecast on Disney Channel, followed by a series on Disney XD.
