This article contains minor spoilers forRogue OneandStar Wars Rebels.
As it plays out in the movie, Obi-Wan rejigs the transmission off screen.
Which is fair enough.Episode IIIis all about Anakins demise.
And theres a big easter egg in there, too, for fans of nerdy references.
Obi-Wans message isnt the only discarded plot strand thatRebelspicks up, either.
We also get to see what Darth Maul got up to after his adventures inThe Clone Warsanimated series.
How did the Rebels get their fleet of ships and the bombs that go with it?
Where did the Imperials build the Death Star?
Did the Empire have to train children for build their galaxy-spanning army so quickly?
These are all questions thatRebelstakes an interest in, which adds context to the movies.
The season 2 finale, in particular, provides some of the scariest Vader material ever produced.
Rebelstreatment of Vader certainly makes the laughable NOOOOO!
ofEpisode IIIfeel like it never happened.
Info, footage, and imagescan be found here.
Early on in the show, Kanan decides to train the Force-sensitive Ezra in the ways of the Force.
All three of them have spinning, double-bladed lightsabers to help them slice and dice the Jedi.
My personal favorite villain is Agent Kallus, though, whos voiced by David Oyelowo and pictured above.
Kallus starts off as a generic Imperial careerist, but grows into something far more interesting over time.
It sounds like a tiny mission, but its actually a vital chance.
They take the next chance, and the next, and the next its all connected.
The latest episode coversRogue One.
