The Bad Batch Season 3 Just Delivered A Star Wars Rebels Clone Trooper Reunion
We know the final fates of two of these Clones, although the final one's destiny still remains something of a mystery.
For those who watched the "Rebels" finale, it will come as no surprise that Wolffe and Gregor gave their lives fighting against the Empire on Lothal and defending it from Grand Admiral Thrawn as part of Ezra Bridger's grand plan. Their deaths were emotional and seeing them in their younger days on "The Bad Batch," one step closer to that, is heartbreaking.
As for Captain Rex, his legacy goes on a little longer. Indeed, he survived the Battle of Lothal (unlike his other two compatriots) and served throughout the Galactic Civil War, ultimately going on to fight on the ground at the Battle of Endor — and no, he's not that guy with a beard you see in "Return of the Jedi." That's someone else. You'll recognize Rex for having his trademark Clone armored arms underneath his poncho, which was first revealed in a "Galaxy of Adventures" short produced by Lucasfilm for its YouTube channel. And that's the last we've seen of Rex so far. Whether he'll pop up again in the post-"Return of the Jedi" era of "Star Wars" remains a mystery, but with Dave Filoni developing both "Ahsoka" season 2 and a movie set in the age of the New Republic, it feels like a foregone conclusion.
Episodes of the final season of "Star Wars: The Bad Batch" premiere on Wednesdays on Disney+.
