This is the first time a character from one of Star Wars animated shows has made it onto the big screen.
This isn't true at all.

Boba Fett first appeared in an animated show. General Greivous first appeared in Clone Wars 2 years before episode 3.

You know what I meant. They took a non established character from the series who was written for a different series and placed him in a film. That has never happened before.


Filoni who oversees Rebels says there's a huge surprise coming and they're showing 2 episodes at Star Wars celebration next month.

The thinking is it'll be grand admiral Thrawn.

THE best character in all Star Wars EU legends or canon.

Yes, it has. That is exactly what they did with Grievous.

So, Greivous was an extablished character when he appeared in Clone Wars? Boba Fett was established before he appeared in the Holiday Special?

I'm willing to concede Boba Fett, since he was actually designed for the Sequel. But Greivous was designed expressly for Clone Wars, then Lucas decided to use him in ROTS.

Chirrut Imwe
Donnie Yen’s blind warrior believes in the Force, even if he isn’t necessarily sensitive to it. One goal of Rogue One is to step away from the Jedi and Sith to explore the heroism of ordinary people. “The Jedi are pretty much extinct,” says Edwards. “It’s up to normal, everyday people to take a stand to stop evil from dominating the world.”
Saw Gerrera
This is the first example of a character from an animated Star Wars title crossing over into live-action. Forest Whitaker's Saw Gerrera is a freedom fighter whose brutal tactics unsettle the Rebellion. During the character's arc on The Clone Wars, a younger Gerrera learned that change and victory often come with horrific sacrifices. You can read all about his checkered history in EW's special breakout on the character. One surprising detail from this new image: Gerrera has more hair than we saw in the trailer. It's not clear if this is the result of the ongoing reshoots for Rogue One, or simply a change in appearance that he undergoes in the midst of the story.
