Future seasons? This is already confirmed to be a one-season thing.
I believe that’s what he meant - they won’t soften anything for future seasons since there won’t be any.
Exactly.
Now obviously we won’t see the death of any characters that we have seen die in other movies/series, but seeing as there will be only one season of this I’m hoping that this means we’ll get something a bit like Rogue One where we’ll actually see some meaningful deaths.
I suppose we could get some crossover with Andor though, seeing as they’re set in roughly the same time. I think it’s a given that we’ll see some rebels in this series, though at this point in canon there’s not much of an organized alliance yet. Maybe we’ll see Obi-Wan help spark the rebellion alongside Bail, similar to what we saw in Rebels only with a separate rebel cell before they all came together.
My only real complaint about the trailer, not counting some nitpicks with the colour grading (I’ve gotten used to that) and such, is the look of the Grand Inquisitor. It’s not a huge deal, but it is somewhat jarring.
