I was excited when the announcement came down that Chewbacca would be appearing on The Clone Wars, but the one clip that had been unveiled wasn’t incredibly revealing. Sure, it looked great and got me all pumped up for it, but we didn’t get to see much action.
With this new bumper for the Season Finale, we finally get to see Chewbacca cut loose and it’s quite a thing to see. I think for the first time we’re going to see the action-hero Wookiee in a bloodlust we’ve always wanted to see, ever since Han mentioned he’d pull peoples arms out of their sockets when they lose.
And is it just me or does it look like that first shot heavily references Chewbacca’s reveal in Jabba’s dungeon in Return of the Jedi?
The season finale of the third season of The Clone Wars airs in the United States on April 1st. I, for one, couldn’t be more excited.
(Thanks to the Star Wars Underworld for bringing this to my attention.)
