Additionally, the sneak peek features Sabine showcasing her skills with the Darksaber. She is seen slashing through a Stormtrooper's Speeder, proving that she has become a better fighter over the years.
Executive producer Dave Filoni offered new details about the Ahsoka as well. On Twitter, he shared past dialogue between Ahsoka and Kanan, shedding light on their history. Ahsoka's fate and current location remain a mystery, but Filoni revealed some backstory between the two characters.
"Even at a young age you were gifted with a lightsaber. But without training and discipline, those skills fade," Ahsoka told a disheartened Kanan.
He responded, "I haven't had to fight with my lightsaber very often. For a while, I chose not to. I was..."
Ahsoka went on to say that she understands how Kanan feels. She ended the conversation with encouraging words, telling Kanan that she wants him to "be the Jedi" that he is.
The most important bit of information from Filoni's tweet is that it proves Ahsoka somewhat became a mentor to Kanan. Her wisdom has certainly helped him in many ways. Hopefully, this detail will satisfy fans before the action picks up in "Star Wars: The Last Jedi."
The fourth and final season of "Star Wars Rebels" premieres this fall on Disney XD.
