Watch Rebels Recon Season 2 Episode 18 Online

In this installment of Rebels Recon, StarWars.com goes inside the episode “The Forgotten Droid,” with cast and creator interviews and more. In “The Forgotten Droid,” we learn there’s a bit more to Chopper than we’ve learned so far. "Chopper was a navigational astromech on a Y-wing and he actually crashed right outside Hera’s front door,” co-executive producer Henry Gilroy explains. Chopper meets a friend in Imperial inventory droid, AP-5, a fellow Clone Wars hero. Though a new droid design to Rebels, art director Kilian Plunkett explains the design’s origins. “AP-5, his model, was in Episode IV. He’s a Death Star droid. But i think he needed to feel a little more unique and special.” Regarding the droids’ Clone Wars tie, “We needed something that these droids would have in common,” executive producer Dave Filoni points out. "So it was a nice way to really relate the two characters other than they’re droids.” Will having an episode all about Chopper go to his head? The cast weighs in. “I would hope it would,” Taylor Gray laughs. "He's got a big enough one." “I don’t think Chopper can get more egotistical than he is. It can only help,” adds Freddie Prinze Jr. “He doesn’t treat any of us with any respect… ever." Andi closes out the deep dive by getting to the bottom of who really voices Chopper... Lastly, this week a fan tweets, “With Yoda telling Ezra to go to Malachor, does this mean the events of KOTOR and KOTOR2 are now canon?” Of course Pablo Hidalgo has the answer.
