| TV, Star Wars (franchise), Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars Resistance By Dan Van Winkle on Thu,11:38 When fan favorite Star Wars animated series Star Wars Rebels recently ended, the question on everyone's mind was where the franchise would go next in its animated endeavors.

One, Constance Wu. She can do no wrong, and I will see anything she's ever in ever. Two, Michelle Yeoh. Same. And third, this movie looks hilarious and heartfelt.
