Watch Over 7 Minutes Of The New Lucasfilm Animated Series, Star Wars Rebels

Coming this October to Disney XD, Star Wars Rebels is set between Episode III and Episode IV of the Star Wars series. As the YouTube description of this clip explains:

In this special extended preview of Star Wars Rebels, the Empire arrives on Lothal — bringing tyranny with them. Imperials and stormtroopers establish an intimidating presence on the planet, enforcing strict new laws for trade and arresting citizens for expressing dissent of any kind. A young boy named Ezra, however, discovers that a mysterious group is attempting to steal cargo from the Empire. Intrigued, he tries to take it for himself – and ends up on the run from both Imperials and this small band of rebels.

Are you looking forward to this one?
