Star Wars Resistance Animated Series Announced

A new Star Wars animated series as a follow up to Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars Resistance, has recently been announced. It is being made by supervising director and creator of Rebels and The Clone Wars, Dave Filoni. The plot focuses on Kazuda Xiono, a pilot for the resistance, who is involved in a spy mission into the First Order. The show apparently has a World War II influence, which is similar to how George Lucas originally drew inspiration from dogfight footage of both World Wars. Another pillar of the series is "high speed racing" which sounds interesting, and could involve pod-racing or even Han Solo, because we know he was involved with some of that post- Return of the Jedi.
Involved characters that we already know about are Poe Dameron and Captain Phasma, roles being reprised by Oscar Issac and Gwendolyn Christie, respectively. The first-order plot makes we wonder if Snoke or Kylo Ren might appear and that we might even learn about Snoke's backstory. It is worth wagering that General Leia would appear, because of her involvement in the resistance.

Considering the timeline, having to be less than six years before The Force Awakens, because of the book, Bloodline, which established the creation of the resistance to save Rasolm Casterfo, a senator being framed and arrested by First Order involved senators. Bloodline was a wonderful book and Casterfo was a wonderful character, so I hope that we could see a wrap-up of that plot and maybe even Casterfo in the show. But, of course the characters that everyone wants to be involved the most, the characters from Rebels have no information on if they will appear or not. Although previous interconnectivity with Rebels and The Clone Wars would make it seem like it will happen again. The animation itself is anime-inspired, a choice causing some backlash but from the banner we've seen already seems to be cool. We don't yet know how many episodes will be in the first season, or how many seasons long the series is planned to be. The series premieres sometime this Fall on the Disney Channel and later on Dinsey XD.
There is also planned to be a live-action Star Wars series on Disney's upcoming streaming service created by Jon Faverau, director of such films as Iron Man. Although announced a while back, this very much excites me, because Jon Favearu is one of my favorite directors working in general and a live-action Star Wars show is sure to be a landmark event no matter what.  

(Blog Update): Thank you for reading, this is a sort of new experiment that I am trying of taking a piece of news or announcement like this, detailing it and giving my opinion on it. If it winds up being liked, I will do more of this. There is more to come from my blog. As you can see I have been trying to put up a piece every Saturday. My next post will be a review of the novel, Star Wars Last Shot, as soon as I can get it up. I have more ideas for new types of posts in the future, some of my favorite things to do are big projects like the Smash Bros, Scribblenauts, and year of Luigi blogs that I wrote. I will be back soon with all-new, all-different writing, and until then stay connected.
