Before Lucasfilm decided to make a whole movie out of steal the plan for the first Death Star , there was a abbreviated moment we could have seen that on TV .
Speaking toComic Book , Star Wars Rebels executive manufacturer Dave Filoni revealed that early discussions regarding Rebels include what eventually became the patch of the flick , Rogue One : A Star Wars Story .
“ There were some really ahead of time on conversations with Rebels about it being about them finding the Death Star plans . But as Rogue Onecame about and took bod , it was obvious we were n’t gon na do that narration , ” Filoni tell . “ I did n’t wanna do that story , frankly , honestly , with Rebels because I think I do n’t want their whole beingness to just serve and hand off to another part of the plot of ground . I want it to be its own storey about this kid . ”

Which , of course , it cease up being , and it ’s a story that’snot yet finish . But because the fib are in the same timeframe , Rebelsdoes magnificently cross over with Rogue One . Chopper the droid make a abbreviated cameo , Hera Syndulla getsname - dropped , and her ship , the Ghost , is in the motion picture too . Plus , the Rebellion ’s reluctance to fight in the motion-picture show was a subtlewink to events on Rebels .
Johnny Reb , in turn , returned the favor . It make for in Rogue One(and original Clone Wars ) fictional character see Gerrera , and alsoteased the Death Star . So while Rebels did n’t terminate up tell apart the story we see in Rogue One , the two stories ended up sharing a circumstances anyway .
