The release of Star Wars: Resistance is just a little over a week away and a new extended trailer has arrived to give you another taste of the upcoming animated series. Taking place decades after the events of RETURN OF THE JEDI but before the events of THE FORCE AWAKENS, Star Wars: Resistance follows Kazuda Xiono (Christopher Sean), a young pilot who is recruited into the Resistance by Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) to spy on the growing threat of the First Order. Previous trailers have mostly focused onTeam Fireball, the group of mechanics and pilots who work at the Colossus, a massive re-fueling outpost, but this new trailer gives us a much better look at the larger world, including peeks at Captain Phasma ( Gwendoline Christie), Starkiller Base, and General Leia Organa (Rachel Butera).
The official synopsis for Star Wars: Resistance:
In the one-hour premiere titled “The Recruit,” Poe and BB-8 assign newly-appointed spy Kaz to the Colossus, a massive aircraft re-fueling platform on an outer rim water planet, home to colorful new aliens, droids and creatures. While undercover, 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 their old battered astromech droid, Bucket. Kaz soon finds himself in over his head with his new friend BB-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.
Star Wars: Resistance will debut on October 7, 2018.
