After last week’s bombshell of F$@*ed up news from Marvel et al. I am please to being you a relatively brief, largely positive check-in from the galaxy far, far away.

First: Battlefront II players and Clone Wars fans (the Venn diagram of which I understand has a great deal of overlap) got excited this week by news from EA Games that beloved voice actors from the soon-to-return animated series will be adding their talents to the popular video game. Beginning on October 30th, Battlefront gamers will be able to hear Matthew Wood (General Grievous), James Arnold Taylor (Obi-Wan Kenobi), Corey Burton (Count Dooku), and Matt Lanter (Anakin Skywalker) returning to their familiar Star Wars roles. The characters will be introduced over time: with Grievous coming first, followed by Kenobi (November 2018), Dooku (January 2019), and finally Anakin (February 2019).  Battlefront II gamers will have time to get reacquainted with their Clone Wars favorites before the series’ new episodes appear on Disney’s streaming service in late 2019.

And in other, completely-not-terrible-and-in-fact-pretty-cool news, this week we got additional behind the scenes photos from the upcoming Star Wars live action series, The Mandalorian including the deep-fandom Easter Egg ice cream maker (made famous by the legion of Willrow Hoods who take a spirited dash through each and every Star Wars Celebration). The photos are available on Jon Favreau’s personal Instagram to anyone who cares to look. Make sure to check out the set photos from when George Lucas himself surprised Favreau on his birthday!

And that’s it for this week. Yes, really! It’s been a cool and calm week for us in the galaxy far, far away. Enjoy it! Who knows what’s in our future. As always: send Star Wars news tips to ToscheStation.net and send obscure Clone Wars errata to @MandaTheGinger
