If you have access to WatchDisneyXD.com, you can check out “Call to Action,” a new episode of Star Wars Rebels that is available one week before it airs on television. This latest episode features the prodigious talents of veteran Star Wars voice actor Stephen Stanton, reprising the role of Governor Wilfuff Tarkin, who is at this point in his career a Grand Moff and a major imperial force to be reckoned with.

The news broke on Twitter earlier today. A sincere congratulations to Stephen from everyone at Star Wars Report–we’re excited to see him in Rebels! And, once you watch this episode, you will be too. It was so good it sent chills down my spine.

Joseph Tavano is the Editor in Chief of RetroZap.com. Born just months before Luke found out who his father was, he has been fortunate to have Star Wars in his life as long as he can remember. Growing up just outside of Boston, Massachusetts, he can remember substituting sticks for lightsabers and BMX bikes for speeders. He loved Droids and Ewoks, and in 1984, when he embarked up a lifelong interest in martial arts, it felt like Jedi training. During the dark times, books like The Essential Guide to Characters sustained him before Star Wars roared back into the limelight with Shadows of the Empire, the special edition re-releases, and the prequels, which he loves. Nowadays, he’s happy to share his love of Star Wars with his daughter; they watched every episode of The Clone Wars together. Though an accomplished drummer, he doesn’t crave adventure (as much) any more, and prefers his old haunts in Salem, Massachusetts, where he resides with his wife. He owns and operates RetroZap.com, a site for in-depth analysis of film, TV and other narrative art (mostly Star Wars), and is working on his first novel. Buy him a glass of Scotch and he’ll return it in kind.
