With the release of Star Wars Rebels Season 3 on Blu-ray only one short week away, Lucasfilm has been sharing exclusive BTS bonus content that will be included in the set with several media outlets. Yesterday we saw a clip courtesy of Entertainment Weekly that explored how the duel between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Maul was created.
The latest exclusive Blu-ray content reveal comes via Nerdist as they provide us with a look at the introduction of Admiral Thrawn into the series.
Season three of Star Wars Rebels will be available on Blu-ray on August 29, and it means you can relieve the introduction of Grand Admiral Thrawn to official Star Wars canon. He was introduced to the galaxy in Timothy Zahn‘s Heir to the Empire trilogy in the early ’90s. The blue-skinned Chiss villain became a beloved character in the Expanded Universe, now known as Legends, so bringing him into the current storytelling universe was no small undertaking. You can get an idea of what it took to inject Thrawn into Rebels in our exclusive behind-the-scenes video from the Blu-ray release.
