USA Weekend had a chance to sit down with Dave Filoni to talk about the season finale of The Clone Wars and he gave some hints for Season 4.
We’re hard at work on Season 4 right now and making it as best we can bigger and better than what we’ve done before. In the season finale, fans will get a glimpse of what Season 4 is going to look like. We take such a leap technologically and story-wise in the last two episodes, where the visuals are even stronger than they’ve been the whole series.
He also talked a lot about the decision to bring Chewbacca onto the show and how George Lucas arrived there.
It came about in the writers’ room. We meet to go over all the stories we’re going to do for a season, and George knew that the fans had been wanting Wookiees on the show for a long time. It’s something that I mentioned to him. Wookiees had come up and I said, “I think we’re ready to do it.” And then he sprung Chewbacca on me. He very much wanted to see Ahsoka and Chewbacca together in an episode.
They also have an exclusive clip of Ahsoka evading a Trandoshan. It’s my firm belief this is the “Predator” episode that Dave Filoni teased all those many months ago and I couldn’t be more excited.
The season finale airs April 1, 2011. Check local listings for showtimes.
