Sinds Rebels is afgelopen, zitten we al even zonder nieuwe Star Wars tv-serie. Gelukkig is er binnenkort Resistance om daar verandering in te brengen! Dit najaar – 7 oktober in de VS, Nederlandse datum onbekend – zal de nieuwe serie via Disney te zien zijn. Vandaag was daar dan opeens de langverwachte trailer.
Verder een geüpdatete synopsis van de eerste dubbele aflevering, “The Recruit”:
Poe and BB-8 assign Kaz to the Colossus, where he meets a cast of colorful new aliens, droids and creatures. While undercover to spy on the growing threat of the First Order, Kaz works as a mechanic and lives with Poe’s old friend Yeager — a veteran pilot who operates a starship repair shop run by his crew: Tam, Neeku and a battered old astromech called Bucket. Kaz soon finds himself in over his head with his newfound friend B-8 as he’ll have to compete in dangerous sky races, keep his mission a secret from his newfound family, and avoid the danger of the First Order.
