Another big reveal made during the panel was the addition of actor Warwick Davis (Wicket the Ewok in “Return of the Jedi”) to the cast. Davis will be portraying the Noghri character Rukh from Timothy Zahn’s “Heir to the Empire” trilogy of novels. Both Rukh and Grand Admiral Thrawn were popular characters relegated to “Star Wars Legends” non-canon status until their resurrections in “Rebels.”
