This new story takes place between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, so it's definitely something that Star Wars fans should get into.

While we wait for the premiere date of Star Wars Rebels, coming in October of 2014, we have plenty of character trailers to enjoy - but this new extended season one trailer really has our attention.

Focusing only on the storyline and highlighting the new characters, this new preview is our best yet for the upcoming animated series. Check out this great new trailer for Star Wars rebels here:

Here is a synopsis of Star Wars Rebels thanks to the show's official YouTube page:

The Jedi have been wiped out and the Empire spreads tyranny through the galaxy. Hope runs thin. But on the small planet of Lothal a big change is looming. A group of rebels meet a 14-year-old con artist named Ezra and soon it's clear their destinies are linked. Aboard their ship, the Ghost, Ezra and the rebels embark on an adventure to ignite a rebellion and strike back against the Empire.
