March 5th is Rebels Remembered Day, and this year was no disappointment as members of the Star Wars Rebels cast released a special announcement.
Starting on March 11, Vanessa Marshall (Hera Syndulla), Tiya Sircar (Sabine Wren), and Taylor Gray (Ezra Bridger) will launch Pod of Rebellion, a Star Wars Rebels rewatch podcast. Their fourth host will be filmmaker and writer Jon Lee Brody. According to their Apple Podcast description, "Together they will rewatch and break down every episode of Star Wars Rebels and also have visitors from various people in the Star Wars universe and fandom."
Marshall has confirmed on her Bluesky that they have special guests planned for the podcast. Personally, I would love to see the return of Rebels Recon hosts Andi Gutierrez and Pablo Hidalgo. Rebels Recon was the aftershow following each episode of Rebels. Gutierrez would interview the cast and crew, breaking down the episodes, so it would be so much fun to have the script flipped with the cast having her in the hot seat. Rebels Recon was such a huge part of Rebels run, making the show truly special.
One thing the hosts are hoping for, according to Marshall's Bluesky, is they will be able to do live shows. Perhaps we'll see the first one at Star Wars Celebration Japan in April as Marshall is confirmed to be attending as a guest. It would be a draw to future con circuits if all the hosts are attending, we might be in for a live episode of Pod of Rebellion.
I love this idea, and I immediately added the show to my Spotify podcast list. The thing I'm most looking forward to is behind the scenes stories. This cast has always been so tight knit, and we're going to get some great insight on their performances.
Pod of Rebellion arrives on your favorite podcatcher on March 11.
