New footage from the animated series

Star Wars Rebels has released a full trailer, rather fittingly on May the 4th - the unofficial Star Wars day (‘May the 4th be with you!’, geddit?)

Set between the events of movies Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith and Episode IV: A New Hope , the animated series has plenty of gaps fill. The 60-second trailer manages to cram in a fair bit of action, and (briefly) introduces some of the new characters.

With the unmistakeable theme music, lightsaber sound effects and familiar ships and Stormtroopers, it looks set to be a veritable nostalgia-fest for SW fans. There’s also a character with a very Boba Fett-esque helmet to look out for…

Watch the full Star Wars Rebels trailer below:

While this might not have been the biggest Star Wars news this week , it’ll act as a nice appetiser for hungry fans.

Star Wars Rebels airs on Disney XD in autumn 2014.
