Star Wars Rebels projected for a February 24 return date

The conclusion of Star Wars Rebels is just weeks away, with the next two episode titles and descriptions surfacing, providing important new details.

We are heading down the trench run of Star Wars Rebels, with the final episodes just weeks away. Dave Filoni and company have yet to drop that final trailer, which always delivers the goods and them nostalgic feels.

In the meantime, information on the first two episodes of the second half of the final season recently surfaced, providing us with significant details on Star Wars Rebels. According to this reveal, the next episode won’t debut until late February, which explains the omission of a trailer for the final leg of Star Wars Rebels Season 4, thus far.

Episode descriptions surfaced providing great insight into the tone of the finality of Rebels: 

• Season 4: Episode 10: Jedi Knight – February 24, 2018 

"The Ghost Crew infiltrates the Imperial headquarters on Lothal, to save one of their own."

• Season 4: Episode 11: Dume- March 3, 2018 

"Reeling from a devastating loss, the Ghost crew rallies together to find a new purpose and resolve."

From these titles and descriptions, Kanan Jarrus seems to be the focus, hinting at the noble Jedi’s end. Now, with Luke as the last of the Jedi at the end of Return of the Jedi, and no Jedi around come the time of A New Hope, his time is surely up.

It seems he will go out as a hero, most likely saving the love of his life, Hera, in the process. I don’t believe our hearts can handle this, but we must carry on like true rebels.

It also makes sense that Ezra becomes one with the Force in Rebels Season 4 too, but his chance of survival is higher than that of his Master. We do know that Hera survives until the end of Return of the Jedi, but the rest of the group’s fate is unknown.

Zeb and Sabine are likely to return to their home planets, once the Ghost Crew likely disperses at the end of the series. Get the kleenex ready, because it’s going to be a tragic end for our favorite band of rebels.

Fortunately for us fans, the wait isn’t too much longer, with that February 24 premiere date (likely) looming for the conclusion of Star Wars Rebels.
