An interesting interview with Star Wars actor John Morton makes a good case that the Star Wars Rebels show will provide a lead in to Star Wars Episode 7 the same way that those numerous books that were recently announced would fill in the gap between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. We are fairly certain that the Inquisitors will be playing a big part in Episode 7 - so wouldn't it make sense that some other pieces of Rebels will also make it into the movie?
Kanan the Last Padawan #1's could be a healthy pick up if
this proves to be true.
