Star Wars: The Force Awakens isn’t the franchise’s only property that likes to keep fans in the dark about its cast of characters.

Sarah Michelle Gellar, who is playing an unspecified role in Rebels sophomore season, recently announced that she’ll be at the show’s panel at New York Comic-Con next week. Rebels will have a significant presence at the convention, to the point where the first two episodes of the season will air there exclusively before being broadcast nationally on Oct. 14.
